This was a stash buster project. Plus a great way to warm up my feet for these cold months.

Here are two sock patterns I've created. A lace sock takes 4-5 hours and a cable sock is about 3-4 hours. Enjoy! Just remember not to put these socks in the washing machine.

Those are both gorgeous socks!  I'm working my first project in Cascade 220, and I just love the warmth and feel of it.  I can imagine how toasty your tootsies must be in those!!

yay!  I just wanted to say that your written pattern is one of the best ways I've seen- including the check boxes is BRILLIANT, and the photo guide right there in the pattern- well, you're a frickin' genius.  I can't wait to get home and make that cable, it's GORGEOUS.

I plan on doing both of those, they're wonderful.  I'm going to try them in sock weights though, because I'd love to wear them outside of the house!

Thanks for your comments - please post your finished socks here and e-mail me privately with suggestions for improvements in the pattern.

I actually wore these out of the house and they were fine.
