Hi Binty! The yarn is really nice - feels quite soft and squishy. I hope I can knit my way through my existing stash quite soon as I really want to take a trip to Get Knitted and buy some more sock yarn!!!

The yarn looks brilliant and I love that pattern too. I get bored of stcking stitch and like the challenge of a pattern too Smile

I think it's called Peacock - I don't have it with me at the mo.

Sprite, the yarn you are using does remind one of a peacock. It's very beautiful. Keep those pictures coming Smile

I turned the heel today Very Happy then I decided to have a break and make some stitch markers. I'll get back to it shortly - determined to finish a pair this month.

I've just finished the first sock - I fear I am going to fail at finishing a pair in the month yet again (this time I have a good excuse - you lot wanting me to make stitchmarkers for you Rolling Eyes )

Will post a piccie later - I only just finished the sock with a little bit of yarn left - I'm not going to graft the toe until I've done the 2nd sock, just in case I don't have enough yarn to do that one and have to do solid toes instead. Hopefully I'll be able to cast on this weekend.
