Tried the slip-stitch pattern and once I actually read the pattern repeat description decided I didn’t like it. Going to try this ribbed/cabled pattern, amused by the random aspect.

And then I discovered that Dicey, while cool-looking, was the wrong number of stitches, and I couldn’t make the math work. So I decided to just do the Vanilla Latte sock, even though it’s a top-down pattern, and I’ll do the fish lips kiss heel.

Not quite enough of the two main colors to make the full length so I added a panel of 28 rows/14 ridges in another yarn I had on hand (but apparently never added to Ravelry?) will have to do that later. (local dyer, mini skein, pale blue with the same sparkle as the others)

Then finished with 6 rows (3 ridges) of the Kodiak.

Stopped about 7 rows short, seemed long enough and I liked the balance of color widths. Turned out to be perfect for the pin I wanted to wear it with!

This was a really relaxing knit to work on, makes a nice squishy fabric. Also enjoy how the two colors worked up together into something with a lot of depth and visual interest.
