Socktoberfest Mystery Socks #2

I am loving this year's Mystery sock. So much fun and very pretty.
I am using Malabrigo sock yarn for the first time, too. Very nice. Soft and easy to work with. Well, easy now that it is in that lovely little yellow yarn cake. Getting it into that yarn cake...not so easy. My goodness. That was the most knotted and twisted skein of yarn. I am so glad that I had my ball winder and swift to use because if I had had to ball by hand it would have ended up in the trash. I was cursing and getting frustrated as it was.

Besides that little problem, love it.

I have a couple repeats to go on the leg of the second sock and then I will be getting started on the heels of both. Both socks will be done at the same time. Yay.
