More to Come

It's the last day of Blogtoberfest and I've kind of slacked off. I was busy with report cards this weekend and kept putting off taking a picture of my most recent finished object but I'll get one soon. In the meantime I've finally picked the yarn for my socks/yarn bowl swap.

 

I've never knit with Trekking before but have heard that it's a pretty hard wearing yarn. My thing with gifting hand knit socks is that while I love a beautiful pair of socks in a lush yarn, I want to make sure they last and stand the test of time. Now I'm trying to find the right pattern. I want something that will look great but with a pattern that is easy to memorize and kind of intuitive. Any ideas?
