Project: Kaylee by Monkey Toes (pattern not currently available)
Yarn: Opal 6-ply, shades of blue
Needle: 2.25 mm (US size 1) 32" fixed circular
I knit 12 pattern repeats in total, and went with 12 rows of 2x2 ribbing for the cuff. On the first sock I bound off in the ribbing pattern, and the second sock was a sewn bind-off. I have trouble getting the first sock on, so the stretchier sewn bind-off is definitely the better choice for me.
These are super comfy socks with a bit of heft to them, and the lace provides some ventilation without sacrificing any warmth. I really like the pairing of the self-patterning yarn with the simple lace.
