I really do knit

I've only shown the yarn I've spun, but nothing that's been on the needles.
Something knitted.
Until now.
I'd told my friend Mary that Deborah Norville Serenity sock yarn isn't carried by anyone in my area. So, she sent me two skeins of Chili and two of Paprika; the sock blockers were a gift from her, too. The picture is of the socks I knitted with Chili, hoping to have them come out identical. But just one extra row on the leg, before starting the heel, made them come out fraternal! Okay, I don't count the rows I knit; I go for 2 inches for the cuff and 4 more for the leg -- 6 inches total is long enough for me.
Here's the link for the instructions:

Scroll down to where it says The Print Ready Versions are Here. Click on that and download the instructions you prefer.
I do cuff-down on dpns.
I love that she has a picture to show you each and every step, and color-codes the instructions for 3 different weights of yarn. The first couple of pair were worsted, just to get used to something new, then I went down to fingering. I've got several sock knitting books, and countless printouts from the Web, Ravelry, etc. but use Silver's instructions exclusively for now. It shows off self-patterning yarn so nicely. Stockinette leg and foot also make it easy to watch baseball or football, or listen to anything on TV, etc. that takes concentration. I take my knitting to family gatherings, doctor's visits .....

Back to the yarn.
It's incredibly soft and nice to work with due to the bamboo in it, and isn't splitty. Once I get some Christmas (don't hit me) knitting out of the way, I'll get the Paprika socks going for myself.
