Decisions, Decisions

I went to my lys yesterday to get sock yarn for my Sockapalooza swap pal and came home with these. The brown and gray is Regia. The others are Lorna's Laces Mother Lode and Purple Club. Okay, the purple is probably for me. I still don't know which yarn or pattern to use. My partner wasn't too specific so I can probably knit any interesting pattern but she did say she likes subdued colors. I may make more than one pair and decide then. It is hard to tell how things will look before they are actually knit up.
