More Sock Knitting

I tried to knit these socks, but decided that as a lace pattern is completely lost on self patterning yarn, it wasn’t worth all of the effort (and stress). I then thought I would knit a plain sock using the same yarn, but could not get things to go right – I started about six times.

I decided I needed a break from that yarn, I wanted to use bigger needles, so I’m using this yarn …

Here is the progress so far …

I’m using 4 mm needles and I cast on 40 stitches. I’m planning on using a diagonal rib pattern.
