A Stripey Grey Sock Takes Shape

Ironically, on the first day since arriving back from my vacation that we have seen the sun, I am taking a picture of my latest sock project, and the only knitting I worked on at all in Hawaii. Yep, it's a grey striped sock. It is just slightly more interesting than your standard grey striped sock, as it is a Trekking XXL colorway (Colorway 102 for those of you in need of grey sock yarn options) that does not seem to be repeating itself in terms of the stripe pattern. But it is still a grey striped sock. It makes for particularly good TV knitting, being both stockinette in the round and having a color pattern almost too boring to even bother looking at.

I'll give you one guess as to who will be wearing this sock when the pair is complete.

If knitting up a man's 3rd pair of grey socks isn't true love, I don't know what is...
