First Sock of '09


I absolutely love this groovy stretch sock yarn! It's even prettier once it's a sock! I've never knitted with stretchy yarn before, and it's a little disconcerting when you cast on. It just feels a bit strange, but once I got going, it was great. I use DPN's, and the stretch on this yarn illiminated that little gap I sometimes get between the needles! And the sock is sooooo comfortable! The pattern is "Tidal Wave", a free pattern on Ravelry.
