Weird, in a good way

I'm terrible, vain actually. Ever since the Winter 2009 issue of Knitty came out, I've been stalking the internet for comments about Pyroclastic. I can't help it--being published is really new to me. The best thing I've found: there is a geologist named C.C. Knitter who studied and wrote about pyroclastic flows!

Hi Marlowe, I knitted the Pyroclastic socks for my girlfriend and I loved the pattern! It was so much fun to knit the biased foot part. And the cables look fabulous yet are so much easier than real cables which tend to eat so much yarn and throw off my usual number of stitches. Thanks for an awesome pattern! I made the L size and I think I found a tiny errata but I figured it out anyway. Very enjoyable knit! I'll have to make myself a pair next.

I just found your pattern through Ravelry, and it is such a gorgeous and unusual sock! It's definitely going to the top of my queue!

I saw that someone in the comment on the Yarn Harlot's blog (or maybe it was Franklin at The Panopticon) thought this sock was the best fitting they had ever knit. Good work.

Hello Marlowe

I have a question about your Pyroclastic sock. I am knitting the first one and during the arch and gusset shaping repeats something went wrong. I keep increasing my stitch number and the decreases of the cables keep the same. I was wondering if you have a chart for this part of the sock. English isn't my mother tongue though I did learn to knit in it. The rest of the sock is fine, so it would be a shame to frog it al. Can you help me? You can contact me at my emailaddress vandammenathalie@hotmail.com

thanks
