My May 2012 shipment of Socks That Rock arrived as I was speeding down the toe of my 2nd sock from the March 2012 shipment … I did manage to finish one before starting the other!
Project: March 2012 Socks That Rock Socks
Pattern: redbud
Designer: Linda Welch
Available: available after March 2013
Yarn: BMFA Socks That Rock Mediumweight in Budding Twig
Socks are worked cuff-down with a turned hem. I used a provisional cast-on for the hem, to reduce bulk. I love the cuff pattern and the simple lace pattern too. The yarn is lovely and spring-y and was just the thing, back in March! 🙂 My older STR socks have been shrinking a bit over time and many wearings/washings, so I decided to use the recommended needle size (instead of going down a size) and making size M.
I love the pattern, and the colorway, and pretty much everything about this FO! Can’t wait for March 2013.
I agree! 🙂
