stripes and more stripes

For the fourth pair I'm using a Bronzed Berry Stripes colourway of Kroy sock yarn but one ball just won't be enough for a pair of socks. Seeing as it's self-striping anyway what's the harm in adding a few more stripes in Gentry Gray to make up the shortfall? This should work out nicely, I think.

With about 15-20 cms of snow forecast for this afternoon and early evening, I've opted to take the train to work. Why drive in bumper-to-bumper traffic for hours when I can instead knit on the train while watching the scenery go by? And then considering that work is not too busy, my forecast for today is quiet, with a lot of knitting!
