How amusing. The intricate lacework pattern on top of your lovely sock is reminiscent of the Gothic patterns at the Midland Grand Hotel!!

Confidence in knitting socks is certainly happening Karen, given the attempt at such complexed patterns and stitches.
Well done!

Cornflower

Yes, all that 'tracery' made with tiny cables and twisted stitches! It wasn't difficult, but a bit fiddly; the rest of the sock was plain sailing.

Wasn't difficult! It really looks very difficult and the result is lovely.

Cornflower

Thank you! You have to keep your wits about you, but the pattern is very clearly written, and I imagine the second cuff will go rather more quickly than the first now that I've got the hang of it.
