Lizards, Lizards, Lizards!




Belated Happy New Year!

I started off the New Year with another pair of socks.  Do you see the lizards?  Cool, huh?  (Although I don't understand what happened with the sole (middle) and heel (bottom) picture colors.)  When I saw the pattern for these socks I just had to try it out.  The book is Op-Art Socks by Stephanie Van der Linden--a real master!  The actual pattern is called "Maurits" after Maurits Cornelius Escher.  The entire book of 19 patterns showcases her inspirations from various visual artists.  These aren't your ordinary run-of-the-mill socks.  An added bonus:  I was able to make the socks pretty much as per the instructions--no fiddling to make corrections.
