I have the ribbing on the first of the Huron socks done, and began the colorwork.

Generally, I don't like colorwork much (hence the pair of Zig Zag socks from Vogue Socks 1 that have been sitting partially finished, since Dec. 2000), but this isn't too bad - just two colors to cope with and a pattern that doesn't change every row.

and I realized that I can wear them with my black slacks and they will look very cool.

and I still love the Lorna's Laces that I picked to do them in. I wish there were a site that had *all* her colors for sale, *all* the time (Carodan Farms has *some* but not all). I'm sure it's a hand-dyed-availability issue, but it's nice to have a full color card to drool over. And really, I don't mind waiting an extra couple weeks for a special colorway.

I wish KnitPicks (one of my favorite new knitting stores) carried more stuff like Lorna's Laces.
