Simply Cables - Just In Time

False labor kept me awake last night, so I finished these socks for my husband. It's a wonderful, elegant pattern, and I really like how the dark green of the yarn works with it. I've used Regia 4ply, colorway 1994. I knitted a different toe, the star toe, and continued the rib pattern for about 2cm into it. It's the first time I've knitted two socks at a time on Magic Loop, though I did cast them on separately on DPNs (I still have to figure out how to do the cast on and joining of the yarn in the 2-socks-on-one-big-circular constellation).
Thanks for the pattern, Anni, it was great fun.

Springtime Cables

After several months, I finally had the opportunity to knit a pair for Sockamania. I enjoyed this pattern, thanks Anni!

I left out the cables on the instep, and also reduced the stitch count down to 60 from 66. I also mirrored both the cable placement and cable twist on the second sock. The socks look different because I was using a hand-dyed yarn, and knit one sock with one end of the skein, and the other with the opposite end. Very surprising! : )
