The scatterbrained knitter managed to lose the first finished one of the Japanese rib socks – so there was an inevitable break in pattern writing. But somehow the sock just bubbled on top of the piles… …well… …all sorts of important stuff and the writing process continued happily. So here they finally are: Japanese rib socks, both of them!
Sachiko pattern is available via Ravelry, price is $4 and you can find details of the Sachiko pattern from my pattern shop.
Note: if you buy the pattern please thell your country in the “Information for the seller” box of PayPal. Thanks!
I have to say that I really like Araucania Ranco sock yarn. I feels quite a lot like Lorna’s Shepherd Sock, but these hand painted semi-solids have bit more color variegation than Shepherd Sock solids have. I really like how the colors knit up: no pooling, just vivid gorgeousness of rich color. The brighter variegated colorways seem to behave well, too – I saw couple of nice examples of that in my LYS. But I’m so happy about these beautiful semi-solids, they are discreet but not boring! The yarn knits up really well, does not split easily and gives very even surface with good stitch definition. Can’t tell much about how it behaves in use, but will get back to that later…
Look at those happy toes!
“Oh, please respect my privacy…”
“Now it’s okay… …shall I strike another pose?”
“Oh, this is not about me, huh?”
“Didn’t you know that I can control the autofocus of your stupid camera… …easily.”
“Nice to have those… …feet out of the image!”

I have some of that yarn in my stash and have been a bit wary of it after hearing reports of it felting despite gentle handwashing – one blogger I seem to remember had socks which felted on her feet (before they were washed). I can’t work out how they could continue to sell it as sock yarn though if this is actually what it’s like – maybe there was a dodgy batch? Looking forward to hearing how your beautiful socks hold up

lovely! I just used this exact same yarn for a pair of ‘through the loops’ socks and wanted to warn you that it felts very easily! Definately a cool handwash only…

Thanks for the warning! They have been in use on several days now and I can see the delicate nature of this yarn. They haven’t been felting in use but they definitely have stretched. Considering this they would probably fit easily to size 40-41 foot – and they might be too big for size 38. If I knew this I would have probably picked 2-2.25 mm needles for these.
