Okay, I promise – no more post titling in French just because the finished items have “French” in the pattern name. 
Pattern: Child’s French Sock from Knitting Vintage Socks
Yarn: Jaeger Matchmaker Merino 4ply, Strawberry, 2 x 50g balls (discontinued, *sobs*)
Needles: My trusty 2.25mm Susan Bates Silvalume dpns
I love this pattern. It was one of the ones that really “grabbed” me when I first looked at the book, though as is usual, it’s taken me nearly two years to get around to knitting them! I like the contrast of the fairly manly knit and purl pattern compared to the sweeping lace panels that run down the sock. The rest of the pattern is very simple – no fancy heels or toes – and it’s just a lovely pattern to knit. The Jaeger yarn (*sniffle*) is perfect for special socks. I doubt it will be that hardwearing, but it shows the stitches beautifully and is soft and delicious after blocking.
And now back to the scarf, thick needles and hopefully a quick result!
