First Finished Socks in 2016

And here's the "denim blue" pair finished:



It was a gray day when I took the picture, so I lightened it somewhat.  The yarn here is Ella rae Classic # 46
The rose socks (Plymouth Yarns Galway Nep, discontinued color) are past the ribbing and onto the plain knitting between the ribbed cuff and the heel flap.  The pair after that is not fully on the needles yet (one is, with the ribbing started for stability.  The other will be within a day or two.  I can't put the second sock on the needles right now for LifeStuff reasons.  It's my 50th pair and I chose a color type I haven't used yet: a brown/gold/orange heather.  The yarn is Ella rae Classic #178.    No pictures of these yet; they'll get their chance when they're done.
