Melissa would be proud. I was very glad to get to wear my recently completed Jaywalkers today. It's nice to need socks again, at least for a week!

Like you and Ellen, wool socks are my favorite; here in Oregon, it's cool enough I can usually wear them about 10 months of the year. With trek sandals or Birkenstocks. I know the rest of the world thinks it's tacky to wear socks with sandals but I really dig getting comments on my multi-color socks and being able to say, "Thanks, I knitted them." Really wigs out a muggle. :) Dying to see the new sweater design. Wish I had the design talent that you have in your little finger! LUV the pink socks!

Looks like it's going to be a great sweater. Very pretty and very wearable. I also agree that less is more, but I do hope you use that other cable in another design sometime.

I love a V-neck, so that's always good to my line of thinking. I could see how there are so many elements you'd like to incorporate into a garment, but really less is more. I tend to like more simple patterns with some neat twist. How's Blue Bamboo going? I hope that you finish that one, as I really like it. I like the design you’re working on too.

I am intrigued by the swatch! Socks look good, too! After those, you can always start knitting socks out of Fixation or some other cotton blend yarn, of course, although I like to make wool socks year round. Just so I'm ready for winter, which always seems to demand more wool socks than I have! Your design is going to be great. I am intrigued by the swatch!
