Classic Elite Alpaca Sox

1. This is a deliciously, wonderfully, heavenly soft soft soft yarn.


2. Whoever chose size 2 needles as the recommended needle size has rocks in his or her head. This is a size 0 needle yarn if I ever knit one. Twos would make a sexy, drapey top, but they're way too loose even for non-walking-in socks.
   
3. I hope they sell a lot so they'll increase the color range.


4. I hate knitting ribbing. I especially hate 1x1 ribbing. I'm not very good at it, and it's soooooo boring. I was going to do a 3x2 ribbing for the sock proper, but I've changed it to 4 x 3 (over 70 stitches).
   
5. I can't wait to finish the tube socks so I can make some of these for my cold little feet, with either plain stocking stitch or possibly the sock on the cover of Sensational Socks.
   
6. And did I mention how soft this yarn is?
   
7. Definitely give this yarn a try!
