I coudn't see the other roads (the two seen in the photo) at all. I sould just see the tops of buses or whatever. <br /><br />On the other hand, I now have a bird's eye view of the frequent wrecks. (The light at the end of my apartment property is the first in a fair distance.)<br /><br />As for the socks, I may switch to a lace pattern for the leg. I've somewhat resigned myself to carry on. :-) NOT that I'm too lazy to frog...<br /><br />I dyed the yarn with Dylon, which I think is the UK equivalent to Rit. You simmer the yarn in a salt/ dye bath for 20+ minutes. If the dye is exhausted, nothing washes out, but for some reason-- I'm guessing user failure-- it doesn't always exhaust even if I leave it in there for a really long time.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034007389011865141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30871338.post-19046719176292589642007-01-15T10:36:00.000+09:002007-01-15T10:36:00.000+09:00I love those stitch markers, and I love your socks...I love those stitch markers, and I love your socks too, even the pooling! I think you should keep on, but if you don't like the pooling, maybe a different pattern might help - like a lace pattern that might help "hide" the pooling somewhat...<br /><br />Make sure to let your pal know to wash her socks by hand a few times (I think you probably have already thought to let her know)...wouldn't want any disasters happening. Was the dying with "real" dye, or Kool Aid?<br /><br />It's a shame they didn't leave you some trees...at least then it could distract from the ugly highway.Shelley L.
