Emily Knit a Knee Sock

Emily knit a knee sock from just one ball of yarn.
It's pretty, and it's patterned, and it will keep her nice and warm.
She used a festive sport yarn, so it didn't take too long.
On US3s and up to her knees, how could she go wrong?
Okay, I'll stop with the rhyming now (I mean it). This yarn is so pretty! Self-patterning yarns seem to come and go in terms of popularity, but I love how they knit up. Lucky for us, Regia is putting out some really cool colorways right now. And for those of you who balk at knitting socks on tiny needles, this yarn might be just the ticket.
This sport weight yarn works really well on a US3, so you won't be knitting forever. I have knit several pairs of socks over the years, and the ones knit with Regia yarns wear like iron.
Emily has been kind enough to make her knee sock pattern available to all of us as a freebie with the purchase of the yarn. This sturdy sock yarn is a real winner. Stop on by, and you'll see why! (Uh oh, more rhyming...)
