• I think the Pink Cottage yarn might look good as "Falling Leaves" by Jessica Landers on knitty.com.
  I have some Autumny yarn that I'm planning to knit to this pattern.

• For the Lake View yarn I think this would look beautiful as a pair of Pomatomi (also knitty.com). Your yarn is very like the yarn the designer used

• How about a really simple ribbed sock to really show off the gorgeous colours of the Bearfoot?
  The colourway you have is really lovely by the way - it looks good enough to eat!
  I just knit the Lichen Rib sock from Nancy Bush Knitting Vintage Socks in Socks that Rock for that same reason - picture here

• The Lorna's Laces in the Pomotamus pattern in Knitty, although I love every one of those yarns.

• The Monkey socks from the new Knitty would look lovely in the Fleece Artist.

• My four suggestions are:
  
  1. Shepherd Sock - Mossy Cottage's Dublin Bay Socks
  2. Bearfoot - Grumperina's Jaywalkers
  3. Fleece Artist - my Arizona Lace Socks
  4. Pink Cottage - my Autumn Sunset Socks
  
  And each pattern is free.
  Happy Sock Knitting!

• Does it have to be a sock pattern? Well, then maybe Elfine:http://autoscopia.com/amelia/assets/elfinesocks.pdf for the lakeview yarn. But I would feel tempted to make a scarf or a shawl!...

• These are fabulous yarns, yum!
  
  I know you've already knit a pair of Gentleman's Fancy Socks from KVS, but if you liked knitting that, I think any of these colorways would work well with that pattern.
  
  Otherwise, here are a few suggestions.
  Wyvern Woman's Socks gives sizes S M and L, for the Fleece Artist.
  Tropicana Socks with the Bearfoot.
  Textured Triangle Socks" for the Pink Cottage.
  Twisted Socks with the Lorna's Laces.
  
  Have fun!! :)

• My fave pattern for Lorna's Laces right now is the Go With The Flow socks from Interweave Knits Summer 2005. I just knit them in "Cool" for a Christmas present. The pattern works great with the variegation and blends it so it doesn't look stripey or pooled.

• Monkey socks!I am totally sold on the Monkey right now for any or all of them.

• Gorgous yarns!
  How about the good old Broadripple for stripy ones or Jeanie T's Maple Leaves for the fall colours? I also have some cute zigzaggy patterns in a magazine at home, could scan to show you.

• Hi I dont know if the posting of the comment takes a while, and this will be number three in a row, if so, apologies, but I get the impression, the first postings did not get through, so here again:
  
  I would use Jeanie Townsends maple leaf pattern for the autumn coloured yarn, and the other ones I would match up with a contrasting yarn, and go wild on peerie patterns on the leg, and the heel and toes I would make in contrast colour, and the foot with either stripes or the hand painted yarn solely.
  
  Inspiration for peeries here:

  http://world.std.com/~kcl/Peeriesocks.htm
  http://world.std.com/~kcl/kSilverCrestedPolishSocks.htm
  
  I really hope you will like peeries as much as I do.
  
  I could make all my handpaiteds into those patterns, they are so simple and great looking.
  
  nana.

• I'm partial to the Pomotamus (sic?) in the Lorna's Laces. I've been eyeing the pattern myself for some time and I do love that colorway.

  By  Cindy, on 10 January, 2007  

• Thanks for ALL of the entries! I'm just about to draw the winners, so check back in a few minutes.
