Sock Dilemma

The SKP 2008 sock pattern this month is not one of my favorites to knit so I have decided to just knit 1-1/2 pattern repeats, do a eye of the partridge heel and stockinette the foot to use it for the SAM5 KAL. Then I will determine if I will frog it or not. I don't know if I've been down on this pattern because of the confusion at the beginning or if its just because I don't like how it looks.

I really don't want to drop out of the SKP2008 but was a little disappointed that the original pattern wasn't test knitted and corrected before it was posted. Since the end of the month is nearing and I'm only finished with 1-1/2 repeats I figured I'd better just throw in the towel for the SKP and modify this pattern so that I can at least get it finished for the SAM5.

So I'm going to follow the advice of Sharon from She-Knits "If you don't love what you're knitting, stop and frog it!"...or something like that.

I think my disappointement is 'cause of how it started this month...I hate to frog 'cause I've been in love with this pattern for a long time, but now just not feeling it. I don't know if it's the sock yarn I chose along with the confusion...or just the confusion lol. JD thinks I should finish it...so I might and maybe like it better? gahhh are you going to do the SKP July and KAL?
