Okay, I started this pair of socks back in 2007 while visiting family in Minnesota and Chicago. Sock projects are great for traveling; the yarn and needles can easily be stuffed in a purse. And working on them while waiting for a delayed flight can help ease the angst of traveling. Just a few more inches before I graft the toe. I used my pattern, a basic and easy sock 
pattern, that I wrote for my knitting students at Boston Center for Adult Education in the 80s.

There is nothing original about the pattern draft except that I used a Vogue Knitting 3-column format (which I have always found to be logical and easy to follow); and I clearly identified the type of heel used for the heel flap. To match a gauge of 4.5 sts to the inch with a 4.25mm needle, I used 2 strands of a fingering weight cotton/wool/poly blended yarn. If you think you'd like to use my pattern, it is available for $3.50. Email your request to me at yarnwinder@hotmail.com
