Marlene

Yup. I ran out of yarn after the last pattern row. This pattern is Marlene, by Cookie A, and it's a great pattern but has some odd discrepancies in gauge and row counts, etc. I knit the pattern as written, and the sock, knit to gauge is a bit longer than normal, and because I was knitting to a 9" length I ran out just at the end. I had a feeling that I should leave out one of the pattern repeats, but wanted to follow the pattern exactly, and here's the result. The socks are great, but it will be a bit before the replacement yarn comes and I can really finish.
