I like your socks! It’s got a sweet cable and a nice heel. :)Susan

Oh, if you use any of those sock yarns, I need a review! I waffled over buying Jitterbug at Rhinebeck before deciding against, but I really want some. They had some in the same colorway of my Point 5 hat that my husband hates and I love. I love the short row heel, but I’ve only done that and the heel flap. I simply like the look of the short row heel better than the heel flap. I am actually looking at working different types of cast ons now. I want to do a toe-up sock like no one’s business and I might do so with my Schaeffer Anne yarn.

Kitten: Totally addictive.. I’m already plotting my second pair, trying to pick between Colinette’s Jitterbug, Brown Sheep’s Wildfoote or Chameleon Colorworks’ Bambino (all in my Ravelry stash).

What kind of heel do you do? I’m contemplating an afterthought or peasant heel…

Anniesue: Thanks! :-) They’re Artyarns’ Supermerino in #149. http://www.ravelry.com/projects/ecofriendlybaby/yarn-over-cable

You realize that socks are addictive, right? Even fingering weight socks become fast knits! On a good bit of knitting, I could knock a pair out in like a week or two.

I totally love the colors of those socks!
