Hi, I'm new here and just finding my way around the forum, it looks great! I am knitting socks with lovely bright wool.
I am attempting to write my own pattern for them with a feather and fan cuff, please would you go to my blog to see the pics and let me know what you think?

Hi Julia, I had a look at the socks and think they look fantastic. I love your choice of colours, just right for "sunny Spain" (I'm ever so jealous, I love Spain).

Feather & fan was the first fancy stitch pattern I learned as a kid, taught me by my nan and her sister Aunty Alice. Aunty Alice taught me to crochet too, so it was lovely to see the socks and think of her and nanny.

All the best
