More purple socks

Why is purple such a hard colour for the phone camera to manage. Nearly always comes out too blue as in the pic.... It's a really great purple in the wool!

As always from my favourite supplier and this wool and silk yarn.
Made for one of our off road motorcycling dare devil friends!
