February socks

I belong to a group who make socks every month. Every month there is a different theme. This month the theme was "cables." I have knit so many socks I think I could knit the basic pattern in my sleep so I decided to make this sock a bit challenge. I pulled out my Treasury of Knitting Patterns by Barbara G. Walker and began to look at various stitch patterns. I used a double and mock cable out of the book, wrote out the pattern and went to work. Pattern: The Great Grape Ape Socks by Emptyknitster Yarn: Cascade Colorway: Needle Size: US Size 1 It was a fun task and I already have an idea for next month's theme based on TV, Book, or Movie. It's Top Cat, Being the cat lover I am this cartoon was a must watch every week.
