Having fun with a test knit

I volunteered to do a test knit for Hunter Hammersen on Ravelry. It's a quick, good-looking lacy sock pattern that took only a few days of knitting to produce the first sock.

ZYG - Lacy Socks - first sock

This is done in Zen Yarn Garden's Superwash in the Garnet colourway. It's part of Roxanne's Harmony Semi-Solid club, a monthly offering. I've had some excellent yarns from Roxanne and they work well for lace or cable knitting.

Back to Hunter. This pattern will be a good, easy knit for a summer sock. Her directions were clear. The real name of the sock is probably not going to be Lacy Socks, but that will do for me for now.
