Charade

When we played our charade
We were like children posing
Playing at games, acting out names
Guessing the parts we played
Oh what a hit we made
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill, lovers until
Love left the masquerade
Fate seemed to pull the strings
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wings
The music box played on
Sad little serenade
Song of my heart's composing
I hear it still, I always will
Best on the bill
Charade


I think all sock patterns should be named after Cary Grant movies. Just sayin'.

The Specs:

The Pattern: Charade by Sandra Park (Rav link there)
The Yarn: Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock Multi Mill End
The Needles: US Size 2 (2.75mm)
The Time to Knit: 3 weeks
The Modifications: I kept the herringbone pattern going down onto the heel flap. Other than that, I just knit the socks like I almost always do: cuff down, heel flap, gusset, etc, etc.

These socks will be perfect for Sock Summitting. Now, excuse me while I head to Target for a couple of items for my trip to Portland on Wednesday morning.

Happy knitting!
