I can’t decide if I like how this looks, or if I need to revisit some numbers to adjust the fit (particularly regarding the total height of the sock and the fit at the ankle and foot). It gives a really cozy vibe, though...

Prototyping.

The short white version (on the left) is 100% merino wool; the gray and long white versions (right) are 100% alpaca. I like the dreamy, soft look of the alpaca, especially in person, but the merino offers crisper stitch definition so that the swirl pattern doesn’t get as lost. Hm...

I also wonder if the bobbles on every swirl are too much? I could make it every other “row” of swirls gets bobbles... or alternate left and right...

Quickie/messy shots of the finished prototype. Is the design too weird, I wonder?

What do you think so far?

Sneak peek. They’re done, but I need to find the time and energy to actually photograph them properly on a doll. Hopefully that will be this weekend...
