Here's another secret come out of the closet. I test knit the current round 2 pattern for Sock Madness way back in last November. This is Tokena which I knit in Louet Gems using size 0 needles for the ribbing and size 1 needles for the rest of the sock. I literally could not put this one down and whipped through this sock in about 2 days. I was hoping to knit the mate during the competition round to knit along and cheer on the competitors but it looks like I'll be mostly just cheering.

And it is a lovely sock! I loved knitting them for the competition, too. Good job. Hope your shoulder and arm are getting better each day.

Your colorwork is so nice! Someday I want to get mine that nice and even. Of course, practice might help.
Do you hold your yarns in both hands, one hand, or just let them drop when not in use?

That is a really nice pattern. Love how the sock turned out. Hope you can knit the mate soon.
