Pair 6 - Eunice

Back to Sock Innovation for the next pair.

This pair was a bit more complicated, my first foray into cables and it involved 2 cable needles, fortunately they were only needed for 2 rows in a 20 row repeat.

The yarn was one that had been in my stash since May 2011- LY Peppermint.  This was a fledgling alpaca yarn and incredibly soft to work with.
Because it was so fluffy, you didn't get as much in a skein for the 100g as with the others.  It was a bit touch and go as to whether these socks were going to get a Chole's Meadow toe or not.  However, I knitted quickly and they were completed with enough yarn left over for a square and 3 hexipuffs!

This pair was on the needles at the same time as Pair 5 and 7, but these didn't travel as well as Pair 5, so remained at home to become an evening project.
