It was supposed to be the "canvas" for embroidery, but I just couldn't bear to put any kind of stitching on the cables. The heel on this sock was really unique as well; it's created by a series of yarn overs that are then decreased. One of these days I'll start on sock #2.

Judy~ I Can Still Embroider!
For the past few weeks I've been working on a mystery sock which was the focus of a KAL sponsored by the Knitters Brewing Company. It was one of the more difficult patterns I've ever attempted and the source of quite a bit of frogging. However, I kept at it and one sock is DONE! (The sock is actually gray, not beige.)

Now that's a designer sock! Very beautiful and functional too.
It's pretty enough without any embroidery.
I agree, but part of the KAL was the embroidery which I tried to keep minimal.
That's a lovely pattern! Well done!
Lovely sock!
That sock is lovely, but I can see why the second one is a "someday" project.
I would never have thought to embroider knitted socks, but it is beautiful. Best of luck on finding someday. =)
