I'm still not sure about the copper Bon Bon, however.  It is mostly Prism Wild Stuff in Mink, with Prism Bon Bon in Mink, and Tilli Tomas Pure & Simple in Pinecone and Glazed Ginger.

I've really been having a hard time being decisive about this yarn set.  I suppose that I should just start knitting squares, because I will no doubt change my mind completely once I start working on it.

I looked around for a fancy two tone sock pattern, but finally decided that this yarn is so wonderful all by itself that a plain old stockinette stitch with a  ribbed cuff is all it needs.
