Evolution Ribbed Socks by Gilraen
Crystal Palace Panda Cotton - Roses Colorway, 2 skeins
2.5mm 40"circular - magic looped
Started and finished June 2010

No mods really, just wanted short cotton socks. Don't like the yarn that much, it is pretty splitty, however.....it wears so well and gets softer and softer in the wash..you know like a good pair of jeans! 3 yrs later and they are still holding up, no holes and soft!

These are really cute!!! I plan on casting on for a pair of summer socks very soon!.

BTW are you guys doing another SAM? I have a pair of socks to post for July and don't know if I should or not. I had high hopes of having them done on the 30th, but that didn't happen.....

Pretty! And they don't look too foot-sweaty in that fiber! Ha ha!

Nice! And hey, you might want to watch out, there's a moose in your sock rosebush. HAHAHA!

With you on the Panda Cotton - splitty as hell, but my Red Dwarf socks are still going strong, even after multiple runs through the w/d!
