My First Design

While laying flat on my back last weekend with sciatic nerve pain I accomplished a lot including my first design. 

I did this design for my husband.  It seems like there are so many women’s socks so when I took Cookie A’s sock design class I decided to do something for my husband that had some interest to it.  So these are cabled socks that swerve back and forth.  The yarn is in his favorite colors.  The pattern size fits a medium male foot, hubby is a 9.5.

Here is a PDF of the pattern, if you have any feedback or questions just mail me.  My email address is in the pattern.
