Where did the yellow go?

Working on my current travelling sock, I finished the first one, & re-wound the ball so the pattern repeat would go the other way for the second. (So it doesn't look like I've attempted to match them perfectly & failed.) Somewhere along the way the yellow seems to have gone AWOL.

Not a very good photo. Sorry, I'm still learning!

For those of you playing at home, it's a Moda Vera Noir (Spotlight) sock yarn - colourway Dnmmix.

Maybe the yellow will make a return appearance ... maybe it won't. Do you think it's going to look odd?

  1. ohhh it must be in the rewinding... that rewinding will suck the yellow right out from between the white and green of the pattern every time... hmmm not the most convincing explanation but it is the best i can come up with.

  2. I think it will be OK--still looks closely related to the other sock . . . did you notice the yellow was missing when you wound the ball, or is it hiding in there somewhere? btw, great colour combo--my favourite colours, plus yellow to brighten things up, or not as the case may be:)

  4. That's a real mystery!! Looks great anyway. Sorry I missed Knit Circle today. Unfortunately I won't be back in time for next week - see you the week after.
