matching or mismatching stripes? help me decide :)

[persephonewillo]

i've knit this first sock. i'm calling them the 70's socks. i randomly put in the stripes. now that i'm about to start the second sock, i'm not sure if i should knit it so the stripes match on both socks? or just randomly stripe the second (in the same colours of course), so that the socks are fraternal twins rather than identical?

I love the colors! I say matching!

I say random. I love quirky socks, so shake things up a little.

either way, it looks adorable so far =)

There needs to be a both option! I like it either way

 

[redambition]

i say mismatch

more fun confusing other people that way...

it's such a cute sock!

Mismatch! Definitely, would look so cool in a geeky way - if there is such a thing

oooooo that's tough! the OCD in me says identical, but how fun would that be to have them mismatched! but then that would drive me nuts, but it wouldn't be that fun.

i didn't help any, did i
