the bathroom sink. The stripe pattern matched up with an exactness
that will continue to amaze me for a long time :-)
These were made from the Opal HP Dumbledore colorway using the
Quidditch sock pattern by Lauren Kent, but I stopped and bound off
before the calf increases (the pattern = knee socks, which are nifty
but I didn't think I'd have enough yarn).
[Side Note: The colors are great, but they just don't represent
Dumbledore to me for some reason. I love these socks despite that
though!]
I think of Dumbledore as more midnight blue, myself. They sure knit up nicely and you matched the colour changes well.
ReplyDeleteOk, I haven't decided if it is acceptable to post comments on my own blog, but I'm going to this time.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it would be great to have the colorway be midnight blue, and white (beard), and purple, and a really bright blue (eyes). In short, all of the colors associated with Dumbledore throughout the books (and maybe a little of the movies thrown in).
Too bad I'm not a yarn dyer person. Something about "permanent color" and "I'm a total spaz sometimes" leads me to believe that it would not go well...
