New month, new sock pattern


Sarah chose the sock pattern for July and August: Two at Once, Toe Up Sock Pattern from KnitPicks. It's a FREE pattern, and the web page states that this pattern is so simple that it's easy enough for a beginning knitter. I'm liking it because I'll be learning at least three new things:

1. To knit two socks at once on the same pair of needles.

2. To knit socks from the toe up instead of from the cuff down.

3. To add an "afterthought heel" a la Elizabeth Zimmermann.

If I was knitting along with you, I'd be learning all the same new things you are. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on each of them.
