Tyler and Joshua gave me each some sock yarn that they personally chose so I can knit them socks. Josh picked a nice solid blue color while Tyler chose a multi-hued yarn that is a mix of green, orange, pink and white. He really does love color so the tiny amount of pink doesn't phase him but when trying to knit it up, the colors came off as a bit girly so this is my solution.
I picked out a pattern in Sensational Knitted Socks that has the generic name of Pattern 2. From the chart I would never have guessed that this is how it would look but I did my usual intensive research on Ravelry and really liked the look of them. I found a nice generic brown to contrast with Tyler's chosen sock yarn and this is what I have for the leg so far.
I am at the heel which in my sick and sorry state, I cannot wrap my head around the heel portion which uses both yarns. I am going to wait a day or two to see if the pattern makes sense to me then or just wing it with one color.
I do like the undulating waves of colors so I will dub these socks Undulation.
