Star Power

During my blogging sabbatical, I managed to cast off 3 projects *grins*

 
This was excellent news, as I was really starting to get sick of the things I was working on ;) I'm not going to pet them all at once though, just in case I have no finishes next week *laughs* so today I am showcasing my Starpower Socks...

 

I love them *grins*

Yarn: Cephalopod yarns Skinny Bugga in the colour way Ghost Moth

Pattern: Starflower Socks

Modifications: I did the socks over 64 stitches, my usual amount. They fit, but the pattern doesn't have much stretch, so I'd probably advise an additional repeat all around.

 

The yarn is gorgeous, I love the colours, even though they are a lot more muted than I normally go for with socks!

 

I think the yarn really matches up well with the pattern too...
