I did this one last night watching television and I'm surprised at how quickly it went. I had navy thread on a needle from a binding that I finished the night before, so that's what I used.

Ruthie another great sock!!!! Guess you are moving right along on these. Your work is wonderful!
I love the navy sock! Did you cut it on the diagonal or was it a diagonal plaid?
I love working with the homespun fabric, it handles nicely.

I had a dream last nite that your socks were going the wrong way! Looking good Ruthie!
I cut the navy one on the diagonal of the fabric. Next up is the argyle fabric and it is printed on the diagonal.
