The pattern is is very basic until you reach the foot then the fun begins. Once I sorted out what was going on with the panel the sock was a breeze to knit. I increased the number of stitches to 72 instead of the 66 given in the pattern. The toes end in an offset slope which worked perfectly for my foot since my toe next to the big to is longer than the big toe. I would knit these again. The pattern is well written and I didn't encounter any errors.
And just to round things out, a little more of the beauty we are experiencing here in South Carolina.

I LOVE THESE SOCKS!
I followed you here from a comment you left on my blog - I moved here (CO) from South Carolina! We used to live in Darlington, and yes, I had so many beautiful flowers in my yard! The growing season is so much shorter here - I miss those days.
