FO: Gator Beach Lagoon Socks




Pattern: Mine

Yarn: 1 skein of Jitterbug - Lagoon Colorway

Needle: US 1's on two circular needles

Start Date: March 24, 2007

End Date: April 11, 2007

Comments: This particular cable is something I've been obsessed about. When I bought this yarn on vacation I knew I had to cast on immediately. Doing toe-up was the smartest decision, even if it's my favorite. The skeins are on the small side (320 yds) and cables eat up yarn like crazy, so that is why I also choose to do the short-row heel.

Within moments of updating my Ravelry projects, I had gotten a comment to write up the pattern. Since a lot of you seem interested in this, I don't see how I can resist. Bare with me as I'm new to pattern writing, but hopefully will have something soon for you all to cuss me out on;)
