Liz's Tour Socks
Finally some FO posts from my Tour Alberta for Cancer sock knitting projects. For this first pair I worked up an old familiar pattern in a lovely purple.

Solid yarns are perfect for working interesting stitch patterns, so I knew, for this elegant purple yarn with it’s subtle sheen, I’d want something more than a simple rib. Yanagi is a pattern I’ve done before and I knew it would suit this yarn well1.

And, anxious of getting the fit right, I also knew I’d have good control of gauge in this familiar mock cable design. ↩
