Fancy Ribs socks


July 2006

I love this superwash merino from Cherry Tree Hill -- there's no dye lot, because this is a "potluck" (i.e., leftover colours) skein. The stitch pattern for the ribbing is from Ann Budd's pattern for Women's Fancy Ribs Socks (from IK subscriber-only content). It's hard to see, but it is truly fancy: a 2-stitch twisted rib. I did short-row heels and plain stockinette feet. These socks are super-comfortable.
