Knitpicks Harmonys. That’s the 16-inch circ I’m using for the 2 circ method and I love them. LOVE.THEM.

And your CTH has me drooling. I have one pair made and a skein waiting in the wings….Must get it on my cue, as my toes wiggle happily when I wear the GMM F&F socks, too!
(((hugs)))

What Chris said- hope everything is all right. The silence is deafening.

Very informative for those of us thinking of “dipping our toes” into the sock knitting world!

CTH is good stuff, I agree.

I think every book of sock patterns should also provide detailed instructions on how to darn the inevitable holes. I have no idea how to do this, except for a vague notion that is must be something like grafting. And last month I walked holes in not one but TWO pairs of handknit socks, which I had to throw away as a result.

I’ve been kind of stuck between socks lately. I have one on the needles that I’m not liking, and another with a pattern I find kind of intimidating, so I haven’t brought myself to cast on quite yet. I have to say, though, that looking at all your pictures of yummy, yummy yarn, just might push me over the edge tonight. My new pair is CTH in Sugar Maple. They’re supposed to be a gift, but …

Oh, good Lord, I want your yarn! I know. I said that out loud.

Interesting meme, by the way. I might have to try it myself.

I’m not really an expert, as I haven’t finished my socks on 2 circs, but I found 16-inch was too short in the cable so I’m using 24-inch needles. Maybe it would help you. I’m using one KP and one Addi Turbo (though if I were buying again I’d try to get Addi lace).
