This are Claudia Handpainted in colorway Purple Earth and I love the colors! Although they totally didn't turn out the way that I thought they would. Using the Charade pattern had the yarn striping in a strange way.
I did end up with a little hole in the first row of the gusset, but really with shoes on you can't even tell. (too bad you can tell in this picture.) I must have started at two different ends with the two skeins cuz the colors pulled in a slightly different pattern and places but honestly I love it. I think these will be my artsy-fartsy socks. 
And last night I broke down and made myself yet another pair of fun sock blockers. Who couldn't use a little flower power right about now?
They are already being put to good use!

love your socks. It is so hard to tell what pattern with what yarn is going to work.
How are you making your sock blockers? You can start selling them on etsy.
Ooh the dragonflies are awesome! How do you make the blockers? Which is to say, what are they made from?
The socks, of course, look marvelous!
