Conwy: The Honeymoon

I LOVE these socks! They are awesome! I love every little thing about them. I love the way the ribbing looks. I love the way the wee cables form from the ribbing, which first seemed like an odd pattern (k1, p1, k3, p1), but looks great and is quite stretchy. I love doing the wee cables. I love the way the wee cables and ribbing make the socks thicker, springier, and just more hiking-ready. I love the way the directions on how to make the wee cables made sense when I just tried it, which is what Susan said. I love Margene for being right that this pattern suited the yarn much better than the other. And I love my two sets of sharp, pointy size 2 Crystal Palace bamboo needles.

And I love the socks for just being there for me while I watched the new Frontline about AIDS. We all need some comfort when we're confronted by tragedy, don't we? And knitting does that for us. I LOVE it!
