The yarn is Tofutsies which is a splitting blend of soy silk, superwash wool. Cotton and chitin. It is knit over 64 stitches in the Hermione pattern with my usual toe and heel. I found the pooling/flashing exasperating and tried several patterns trying to get it to stop. I am knitting the second sock in the Jeck pattern. I think my niece will be amused by the change in pattern. I do not like this yarn both for the color issue as well as overall splittyness.
