| Joan's Socks Reviewed by Mary vandiver on 2009-05-05 |
     |
| I have made 7 pairs and use Hook E for the ribbing and Hook F for the sock. I am making mine from Lion Cotton worsted weight. (They do take a bit of drying time, but the comfort is UNBELIEVEABLE.)My father was so taken with the pair I made my mother, I have adjusted the pattern for him! The pattern is fail-proof with single yarn and the hook sizes as mentioned above. If you are looking for a sock/bootie--this is the pattern.
