These Lacy Cable Socks by Veronik Avery are from the book Knitting 24/7. They are knitted from Madeline Tosh sock color Silver fox.
These socks are a good fit. They aren't terribly snug up top, but due to the structure the stitch provides they don't slouch too much. I wear a 6.5-7 shoe, and I knitted the pattern as written. I've machine washed these guys a few times now, and they are holding up. While I love they way these came out. This wasn't a project I could knit while doing something else, and I had to keep the pattern with me through both socks. I will probably go with something more mindless next time.
