These socks truly are the bee's knees. Ordinarily I don't care for yellow socks, but this is another inspired pairing of pattern and yarn, if I do say so myself. I'd happily use this soft, luxurious yarn again. It's subtly mottled, dense and not as sproingy as some, and feels fabulous when worn. And I'd happily knit this superb pattern again, the September SKA mystery pattern. I love the vikkel cuff, lace rib (which compensates nicely for lack of sproing in the yarn), and birdseye heel. The only modification I made was to the toe. I knit the fancy toe in the pattern...
... but it proved to be uncomfortable on my Frankenfeet, so I frogged back and worked my usual round toe.
Three empty clothespins! I daresay this calls for cake. Given the frequency and severity of cake fail roundabout Exit 151, that's no small matter.
Tralala.

Every occasion calls for cake lol. I like the pattern you sure are knocking out finishing socks. Can't wait to see the next pair. I like the shoes too.
Wow, I could have sworn it was more than three pins--you're flying through these!
These are my favorites so far -- I voted for them actually! And I love yellow socks. (And chocolate cake too!)
The cake is so good looking, I'm drooling. Love the socks, I really want a pair of yellow socks.
Definitely cake worthy!
