I'm working on these socks along with a few other pairs. The stitch pattern is on page 96 of More SKS. I'm using Regia cotton/wool blend yarn and size 2.0 mm needles. It's a 12 round repeat pattern, but all of the odd rounds are plain stockinette and the other six are all variations of the same combination of increases and decreases. I used an eye of partridge heel flap and am continuing the stitch pattern on the instep to the toe.

I'm back!
I haven't posted in a loooong time because I have been working on other KALs, along with all the other life events that go on.
Even though I don't think I will ever tire of this book, or knit all the socks from it, I (in a weak moment) acquired both More Sensational Knitted Socks and Favorite Socks from IK. They are very different but both wonderful. This sock-knitting obsession is reasserting itself, and I have finally realized I can never hope to knit as many in fingering yarn as I want to try.
So, starting now, I resolve to knit at least alternate patterns in worsted weight yarn and donate them to CIC. I have knitted for them a long time, but have also been neglecting them so I can resume with them as I resume here.
Resolved, yeah, and darn, I don't need any more worsted weight yarn either.
