Christmas bedsocks

Firstly a pair of bedsocks for my 5 year old nephew:


Stockinette-stitch Triangle bedsocks

Pattern: Stockinette-stitch Triangles from More Sensational Knitted Socks
Yarn: James C. Brett Pure Merino in PM5
Needles: 2 x 3.5mm 60 cm circulars
Method: Knitted cuff down two at a time.

Then a pair his eldest sister my 10 year old niece:


Open Cable with Twisted Rib bedsocks

Pattern: Open Cable with Twisted Rib from Sensational Knitted Socks
Yarn: James C. Brett Pure Merino in PM2
Needles: 2 x 3.5mm 60 cm circulars
Method: Knitted cuff down two at a time.

Then a pair for the middle child my 7 year old niece:


Bluebell Rib bedsocks

Pattern: Bluebell Rib from Sensational Knitted Socks
Yarn: James C. Brett Pure Merino in PM5
Needles: 2 x 3.5mm 60 cm circulars
Method: Knitted cuff down two at a time.

Of the three patterns the Open Cable with Twisted Rib was my favorite. I don't have any modeled photos but this one on my hand shows how the pattern might look on a foot:

This yarn is so soft & squidgy that it's perfect for a pair of snuggly bedsocks. I've even started a pair for myself!

Help Please!

Hi everyone! I need your help. Posted to the left is a picture of a sock I've started with Wildfoote Elderberry yarn. It's the BabyFern 12stitch pattern repeat from More Sensational socks. I don't like it. I think the pattern is lost with this colorway. I showed the sock to a girl at work and she agreed. What I need help with is suggestions. What pattern would you suggest for this yarn/colorway??? I prefer to knit cuff down with a heel flap/turn. I have both Sensational and More Sensational sock books. I would really love to find a pattern to do this colorway justice. This is the second time I've started a sock with it. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
