The Yarn: Dream In Color Smooshy in Nightwatch. Purchased from Three Bags Full on Main Street.
The Pattern: Garter Rib from Sensational Knitted Socks. Everything else in this sock was improvised.
This yarn is particularly smooshy. I've used 2 other skeins and neither were as cushy as this skein. It was weird - it almost felt like it had some cotton in it.
I've got these socks blocking right now. It seems that so far the blocking has relaxed them and made them a bit less dense than they were. We'll see what they're like once dry.

I love garter rib socks. Especially with the right yarn. I need me some Smooshy!
Love the socks - the color & the pattern. I have used the same stitch pattern too & it just looks so nice. Great design.
Excellent choice with the color and pattern. They look lovely:D
Very nice! Fast knit. :)
Ahahhh! I am the lucky recipient of these socks! My very 1st pair of hand knit socks too, and I'll tell you they are everything a sock should be. I totally love the colour. Thank you so much Chrissy!
