2 by 2 Rib

Easy, stretchy pattern that's perfect for socks because it's really hugs the feet. It's easy to remember and goes a lot faster than 1x1 rib. It doesn't work that well withj jacquard yarns.

Regia is one of my favourite yarns. It's consistently good quality. It's got a nice hand and you always seem to get a lovely pair of socks of 2 balls/



Project Notes

1. You can see the patterning clearly on the foot where the stocking stitch is done.

2. The patterning on the leg is murky.

Nice cotton blend, bareable to work during the hot summer.
