Mad Cow
No - not me (well actually, maybe me…) this is the name of the first pattern in Sock Madness which arrived in my email inbox at 11.45 this morning GMT. I cast on about noon this was progress by 2pm
and this was about 4
grafted the toe about 5 minutes ago, 8.30pm
I’m really pleased with the colour combination and it was a very fast knit. I am a little worried that I may need to unpick the toe and put in another repeat of pattern as there has been much discussion about how many repeats there should be.
I read “Repeat 6 times” as meaning IN TOTAL not reading the rows setting out the pattern then repeating “6 MORE times”. So not sure if I’ve knit enough repeats…..hope not as it fits quite well as is….

Looks fine to me - and the only people that are going to complain will be the usual people that have nothing better to do with their life than spend time writing spiteful essays on the web…

That is so cool. I would never have thought of using self striping and one colour sock wool together. Inspired! Good Luck with sock 2…. and I’m not telling you where the labels came from as it may spoil a surprise! :0)

That looks great. And if it fits nice as is, I wouldn’t worry about another repeat. That’s one of the best things about knitting, after all—you can adjust patterns as needed to make them work for you.
