Here are my April offerings, they're rather bright and cheerful!  Cool  



The pattern is the 4-ply version of Broadripple, (Rob Matyska will email it to you if you email him to ask) and the yarn is Opal Rendez-Vous shade 2060, which I bought on my recent trip to Berlin  Very Happy  I deliberately made them non-matching and knitted the second sock from the opposite end of the ball than the first, although I've just noticed that the blue stripes have rather nicely lined up despite my efforts!  Rolling Eyes  Laughing
