Instant Knit Gratification

I just love my CSM.

LOVE. IT.

I hauled it out to my local Stitch n Bitch last night to show it off and was able to knock out a pair of socks! I'm wearing them on my feet as I type this!

Yarn: Berroco Comfort Sock
Color: Southland (1813 )
Hem: Double 15 row Picot (crank 15 times, yarn over ever other needle, crank another 15 times, hang bottom hem)
Leg: 52 rows
Foot: 59 rows
Gage: 7.5 sts/9 rows per inch
Toe to Heel measurement: 10.5 inches

No holes in the heel!


Observation:

These are the first socks made out of Comfort Sock I've made for me. They aren't as toasty warm as wool socks are, but they are super soft. They're made of nylon and acrylic. For $7.00 a ball, though, the price is really good.
