I used my standard plain toe-up sock pattern for these socks - the colour means that they are already well-patterned and don’t need embellishment. 80 stitches on 2 mm needles gave me an excellent fabric which should wear well. The yarn was a birthday present from a good friend in Powell River, BC, Canada - which I received on my birthday Oct. 15, 2012. Knit in Puerto Vallarta during a 6 month sojourn.
