From Knitty: "Handpainted sock yarns often beg to be played with in non-stockinette ways, yet many stitch patterns become lost in bold handpaints or a yarn's character becomes mottled by extravagant motifs. rpm was written to let both a simple pattern and a bold yarn teach the sock knitting world to sing in perfect harmony -- neither disturbing nor outdistancing one another.

rpm also offers the knitter with a snap and go soul the ease of choosing a heel and toe type to stretch the imagination, to suit the sensibilities, to sigh with relief over something other than stockinette...all in one spin."
