My sockpal socks are done! That was a lot of knitting. It didn't help that I had to rip back the first sock a few times. I just hope they fit my pal. The are made with Regia sock yarn and the grey is Sisu. The pattern is just something I made up. I think they seemed to take a long time to knit because my available knitting time has seriously decreased. I now have to commute to work 45 minutes each way, instead of the 5 minute commute I used to have. (No I didn't get a new job. They merged our office with the south St. Louis office.) That's 1 1/2 hours that could be spent knitting. Maybe I will have to learn to knit and drive. Maybe not.
The next pair of socks I am working on are in Regia Bamboo. I am having difficulty deciding on a stitch pattern because the yarn is kind of busy.
