Comments: I bought this yarn right after I turned in my final piece of classwork for my master's degree. Now I only have my thesis to write, so I named these my "ABD (all but dissertation) socks". I've always loved this yarn for its stitch definition. If only the yardage was a little more generous. This pattern just flew off the needles.
Yarn: Handmaiden Fine Yarn Casbah Sock in w(h)ine with roses
Needle: size 0 circular

Comments: The yarn and pattern were part of The Loopy Ewe's "Don't Be Blue" kit for not getting into their sock club this year. I love the yarn and the pattern. This is the first time I have used 0s for a sock. I needed them to get gauge, but I think this yarn would be happier at 7.5 or even 7 stitches per inch. At 8, it is stiff with almost no stretch.
