Here are the Cauchy socks I knitted for my nephew, Joshua. I had about 2 ounces of this Fortissima cotton/nylon sock yarn leftover from his Red Rover socks. After knitting these socks, I had less than a foot of yarn leftover. I am so glad I had enough yarn to complete these Cauchy socks for him. I used my 2.25 mm Chiao Goo 40" circular needles and my 2.00 mm Addi Bamboo dpns for the eye of partridge heels and the toes. They are a little big for him, but he will certainly grow into them.
The pattern wallet on the left was designed and created by Laura M. I photographed the back of it to show the clever pockets for needles and scissors and the handy zippered section to hold stitch markers and Chibi needles. The other side holds and entire 8.5" x 11" page very nicely. I have the Cauchy chart there. She also attached an elastic band to hold it all together. Thank you to Laura for this truly wonderful gift!
Nice socks. That's a great pattern wallet & I love the design on the fabric.

Only a foot of yarn leftover! Very close call.
The socks are great. Your nephew will love them. And the pattern wallet looks very handy.
