But. My
head works overtime even if I'd try to let things be... and suddenly my brain
was full of ideas! Yes, I had a lot of ideas for the Eurovision socks! One idea
got even to this stage:
Only to prove
that my idea looked better in my head than as a knitted sock. Too much of
everything: the old Eurovision logo, the new Eurovision logo, the Finnish flag (on the
other side of the leg), rainbow flag, intarsia, stranded knitting, stripes and
so on. I had to edit big time.
Obviously I
had to keep the Finnish flag ;D And I really liked the rainbow colours, so that
would also stay.
I knitted
another pair with rainbow colour blocks and with the Finnish flag in a heart...
and ripped it all! Because during the second sock my head was thinking of the
rainbow stripes on my first proto knit and suddenly it hit me that would be the
look I wanted.
Oops! There
was a deadline! No big deal if it wouldn't have been the busiest time at work!
Luckily I work pretty good under pressure and I met the deadline not only by
knitting two pairs of men's size socks but also by writing down the pattern.
Whooh!
So there's
also the reason why the pattern has only a quick shot of the socks.
