Retro Rib 1

Ok sock knitters over at socktoberfest...we have our first official socktoberfest sock. One. But it's finished!

Let me say it is snug, but I did that purposely. You see, I learned a valuable lesson with koigu. I need to show you before wear and after wear of my Go With The Flow socks...wait and see.
Let it be known, that if you are using koigu, which I love, make them snug.

I can't say enough how much I love this figure 8 cast on and this toe...
The official toe pose:


If you haven't tried it, give it a go...

Those look great! Is that pattern from IK? It looks familiar.

Thanks too for the tip about the koigu! After I finish Sam's socks, I am planning to cast on some koigu for me.

They look great so far! And, yes, we'd love to see the before- and after-wear Koigu sock, and why they need to be knit to be snug.

Lovely Retro Rib! Lovely Koigu colors! I'd say it's a winning combination.
