I have gone sock crazy. I bought some Mountain Colors Bearfoot last week. The colorway is steelhead. I love this yarn. It knits up so nice, and the colors are wonderful. I have one sock done and have passed the heel on the second sock. I am using my regular cuff down pattern. And yesterday I bought some more Bearfoot in the lodgegrass colorway. I have not decided what pattern I'm going to use for it yet. I also bought a skein of Austermann Step yarn in a pretty blue varigated pattern. I am going to make Jaywalkers with this yarn. I think it will show off the chevron pattern really well.
So what about the peacock socks? you ask. I frogged them; ripped them out completely. I just was not happy with the way they were going and the way they felt. I will try something else with that yarn later on.
I also started a scarf out of the leftover alpaca from the flower petal shawl (still unblocked). It's a lacy little scarf that I found on Knitty.com. It looks like fun.
