Stop! Stop!

**Added 4/22/2006: You can print out the complete HayStack Socks pattern here!**

If you are Knitting Along At Your Own Risk, stop now! I’ve had to change a couple things. Forget about calling them the Great Socks of Aten for starters. The ribby pattern I wanted to make gets completely lost in the colors of the yarn. Drat. Discouraged, I worked on my dischloth and tried to come up with a way to break up the variegation. I’ve figured it out (YAY dishcloths), I’ve tried it and am making a couple more changes before I show you a picture and give you the pattern. The bad news is that I think a *K2, P2* rib will look better with version 2.0. Stop being so crabby, I told you socks are an Organic Process! If you’ve got an inch and a half of *K1,P1* and don’t want to pull it all out, it looks fine so don’t worry. If you haven’t started because you were waiting to see where I was going with this (good on you): find your gauge, cast on 72, join and *K2,P2* for 1.5 inches. I’ll have the leg pattern in its final form in the morning.
