September Knit Something of the Month

 

Since September has started, I've started working on my September Knit Something of the Month Project. This month is a sock month so I'm knitting Paraphernalia socks.  It's a free pattern and I think it has just the right amount of cables.  There is just one single big cable going down the outside of each leg and the rest of the sock is ribbed.  This means it's been a very fast sock (as you can see by how far I am already).  I'm using Socks That Rock Lightweight in Rosebud and the cables are popping nicely in the yarn.  I did change the cuff of the sock a bit - I just started in the K3, P1 rib that the main part of the sock uses, but I worked the knit stitches through the back loops.  This tightened up the edge a bit, but it still flows into the main pattern.  It's also biasing a bit right now, but I think that will disappear when I block them or when I wear them.  I had never seen this pattern before Camp Loopy and several people did it for their second project (cables).  I just loved the look of it and I'm so glad I found it because I'm really enjoying knitting it!
