Just finished Pam's socks a few days ago. I'm very pleased with the results and will no longer shy away from "toe-up" sock patterns. It was so easy, I now wonder why I took so long to try it out. I used my sock stretchers to block my work; the cable pattern (which by the way, is a 5/5 cross) draws in quite a bit at the in-step (around the ankle) and I wanted it a little bit looser. The stretchers did a fantastic job.
Christmas is just in a couple of days and there's much to be done - it's madness, I say! I've been spinning more than usual, probably because the sound of my wheel turning relaxes me. Who knows.
