I received a copy of the book for review and chose this pattern for my sample project. I’m starting with the ankle sock, but look forward to the heelless version and the anklet.
Re: the yarn. I’ve only made a few socks, and this is the first time I’ve purchased yarn specifically for them. I hope that the cotton and wool blend will make a comfy sock and the elastic will give it the stretch hand made socks can sometimes lack.

One down, number two cast on. Smooth going and a good fit, yeah!!
