Red Delicious
I always thought that sock blockers were such a frivolous purchase, but I’m the first to borrow a pair when I have a too-small sock that needs some lace stretching in order to be attractive.
Another Ironwork Sock is done! Hoo, boy, am I glad I’m only knitting one of these. Dare I say that I now have this pattern memorized? I promise, I’ll only use my powers for good! I used Spirit Trail sock yarn that I purchased at MDSW for this, and I love it! It’s twisty and squishy and good.
Speaking of delicious…
Please stand out of my way while I tear apart the pretty packaging, rawr!
The Wollmeise yarn finally arrived! Roll call!
Dornroschen – medium.
Brombeere – dark.
Poison #5 – dark.
Veilchen – medium.
Gewitterhimmel – dark.
Tiefer See – medium.
Farn – dark.
Only the Brombeere and Gewitterhimmel are mine. I’ll be passing the rest off to their rightful owners this week. Maybe. Just kidding, girls, you’ll get your yarn!
I leave you with one last photo of the pretty.

Mmmmmm. The only thing that is better than sock pr0n – sock yarn pr0n! that sock is lovely – the single sock partner be a lucky one!
That photo really shows off the sock, and it is purrrrrrrr-dee!
That sock pattern is so pretty. I might even like it better in the red.
you’re kidding! memorized!!! remarkable, really :) the sock is beautiful!
That sock is gorgeous! I am going to need a pair.
Love the sock! That pattern really is a beauty.
Wow, your package from Wollmeise is outstanding. Can you think of anything else tonight? I think I’d be going through some serious cast-on-itis if all of that goodness was in my house!
Now THAT is some eye candy for a hectic Monday. Thanks for sharing. I’m dripping with jealousy though of your gorgeous new yarn. :)
Your sock is so pretty, but the yarn keeps drawing me away from the sock. The yarn is gorgeous!
Gosh, that yarn is beautiful. I would be tempted to buy it just for the way it is presented!
The sock is gorgeous! And the yarn…wow.
That sock is just so gorgeous. As soon as I some free time again, I am so going to knit that pattern.
gorgeous! all gorgeous!!!
Wow, a total feast for the eyes. All of it, so gorgeous!!!
That pattern is great! And that sock yarn is utterly droolworthy.
Ooh, that yarn does look nice! Almost too pretty to use.
Pretty! Hey, what are the tiny skeins tied to the packages?
Gurlll!!!!! That is sooo pretty. It looks sooooo much better than when I say it the other day at snb. What did you do??? It looks like a whole new different yarn!!!
I hope that my “extremely late” test knitting is still helping you with the pattern. Is there a version 1.4 with the 3 erattas i found?
That Wollmeise yarn is gorgeous!!
that ironwork sock came out great! the pattern looks great with that yarn. And I’m drooling over all that Woolmeise. All together they make such a pretty color scheme.
The sock is phenomenal! I must knit myself a pair.
I do love that sock. The Wollmeise yarn is so pretty! I’m impressed that you were restrained enough to photograph the packaging :)
The packaging tells me that you ordered from the Wollmeise store. Each of my two packages arrived in record time–about a week. The shipping charges weren’t prohibitive: they came to about the price of a skein of yarn. The only problem I encountered in ordering was figuring out how to change the German language website to English, which you do by clicking the flag in the upper right corner! Like you, I ordered Brombeere (raspberry), Veilchen (blues), and Farn (emerald greens), and they’re gorgeous.
Ok, you should’ve warned us–that Wollmeise is stunning. Claudia is a wonder, and so are you with that sock…
So much pretty in one post.That yarn knit up in your pattern is awesome. Awesome! Mmm, Wollmeise.
goodness, those ironwork socks are freakin stunning!
that yarn is amazing….beautiful!!!! the ironwork sock is great too – isn’t the yarn the best!!
I think my drool just shorted out my keyboard. Absolutely beautiful socks and yarn.
