My Astronomy socks are done! I did not use a pattern, just my usual two-at-a-time, toe-up method. The star of this project is the yarn, which is a self-striping yarn from Gauge Dye Works. There are 28 strips in these skeins, one for each day of February. The colored strips symbolize astronomical events like the full moon and different planetary conjunctions. The grays are just there to differentiate the days with nothing too exciting happening in the sky. I loved the KAL that went with knitting these socks, and also just appreciated the prompts to look up at the night sky a little more often!
Quite A Yarn 
I had a feeling this yarn was special, when you first showed it on your blog. Very cool, as you like to say.
