I finished my Raspberry Blue socks yesterday so I can wear them to work tomorrow. I wanted them to be identical twins but apparently I didn't make the heel flaps exactly the same because after I turned the heel on the second one, the stripes no longer matched. You really can't tell that they don't match until you look at the toes. I decided not to frog because you can't see my toes in my clogs anyway.

I cast on for Ruffled Surplice from IK Spring 2007 yesterday after I finished the socks. I'm using KnitPicks Shine Worsted in Bachelor Blue. It's a quick knit on US#10.5. I'm already to the waist shaping even though I had to frog a couple of times. I've had a few issues keeping the decreases in pattern but I think I finally have that worked out.
