I missed the Jan pair, so thought I'd make a late start with the sock-a-month! Regia Surprise colour, the surprise being that you don't know how the pattern will appear until you make them, as it depends on the number of stitches. Mine are 64sts.
Here are the different effects, I was hoping for some of those on the bottom pic!

Brilliant socks, I've not come across this yarn before, where did you buy it from, quite tempted by some of those colourways

They are fab Jo! I love the colours/stripes
Family socks in the same yarn would be interesting! _________________ " Onen i-Estel Edain, U-chebin estel anim"

I love the colour of the regia yarn, and the swirly effect is very interesting. Doesn't detract from your socks though 'cos they are lovely!  _________________
