Here are my completed Summer Fresh socks from the English translation of Stefanie van der Linden's Knit Socks for All Seasons. I really like this book and want to knit nearly all the patterns in it. I used Socks That Rock lightweight yarn in the Goody Goody colorway and size 0 (2.00 mm) Addi Lace circular needles for the entire pair of socks. The crossover cable was a bit tricky, as it involved 6 stitches, but it gives a nice effect.
I have seen much nicer stitch pattern and variegated yarn combinations on Ann's lovely blog, but this combination worked well enough. These are very dense socks and each weighs about 60 grams and I am fortunate that my skein of yarn was very generous instead of the usual 100 grams. These socks turned out to fit my sister, Teresa, perfectly.
