Ravens...
OMG
For this Poe fan, I think perhaps this is perfection...
(Haida, Korppi, Tlingit, Rook-y, and of course, Thraven)
(sigh)
I think I'll go listen to The Alan Parsons Project Tales of Mystery and Imagination while I contemplate which STR lightweight I'll get first
(Thraven, in Laci, is reserved for Anne's shawl)
edited Tuesday a.m. Korppi, Tlingit, and Rook-y are on their way to me!

Drop. Dead. Gorgeous. Thanks for enabling!
I dunno how they look in person but I was unimpressed by what I saw on my monitor. My Visa is very relieved :)
You and I are very much in sync with our color preferences I think. I just bought Rook-y, Corvid, Haida and Korrpi and regretfully passed on the other colorways you mentioned. Next time!!
I'm not sure, but I think I might have just bought Rook-y in Laci and 4 other colorways in Lightweight (I *need* black socks anyway. heh heh) Grawk, Korppi, Rook-y, and Tlingit...
Those colors are beautiful. I like Rook-y a lot.
How can you tell? The pics are so dark but then so was Poe! Beautifully knitted no doubt.
I want Athena. I really want Athena. I have no room in my house for Athena.
I'm simulating a Raven colorway at home with ye olde dyepot. :)
Since you're not in the BMFA sock club this year, you might have missed Tina's list of videos. They include both a serious and a comedic reading of The Raven by Vincent Price. Tina's post is at http://rockinsockclub.com/11/04/ravens-2/
They are "This is just rich" and "my hero."
Beautiful! I am resisting! :)
wow is right!
You picked some pretty colors! My dad (an American lit prof and Poe fan) loves ravens and crows, but I know he wouldn't wear hand knit socks (he grew up poor and hand knit socks meant you couldn't afford to buy "real" store-bought socks). But maybe for me...it's my b-day this weekend...hmm...grandma sent a check...must go now...
Ravenscroft, Haida, Thraven, Korppi, Rook-y, Tlingit.
I'm seeing lace in my near future. :-)
