Last Fall I was looking for a cool new sock pattern and someone on Twitter recommended this one, Turmeric Socks, by verybusymonkey. I took one look at them and knew I had to knit them. I love the way the pattern tapers into a V on the top of the foot! So cute! The cables pattern is very interesting and not too difficult, though I did have to use a row counter to stay on track.
If this yarn looks familiar, it's because I accidentally bought two skeins of it way back when, so I now have two pairs of socks in exactly the same color. Whatever works!
