When I went to visit Jaggerspun mills, they had a whole bunch of grab bags with about 100g of their Kokadjo yarn in various colors. I used two of the colors for the Jupiter socks, but these used the remaining colors from the brights packs I got. They remind me of rainbow sherbert…
I really like the spiral knitting technique for combining colors like this, particularly with the foot gusset. Pre-dyed striped yarn sometimes looks weird after the heel, since there are so many more stitches which changes how quickly self striping yarn stripes. With spiral knitting I’m able to control that, and you get one stripe of each color all the way around on the whole sock.
