Knitting For Dummies

Just finished another pair of socks.   The pattern is "Sugar Maple" from Melissa Morgan-Oates' book  2-At-A-Time Socks.  I was a bit worried that the mini-cables would not be stretchy enough, but they actually fit very well.  I accidentally started off with a regular 2-by-2 rib for the first inch of the cuff, then when I realized my mistake, I just kept going, because it goes with the pattern stitch, which is a 2-by-2 cable.
