In the original pattern the eighth stitch purl dip was a knit stitch. As is my habit, I turned it into a purl stitch so the socks have a wide ribbing and snugger fit.
Also, I used 56 stitches instead of 64 to better fit my narrow feet.
I felt like something easy this weekend, so finished these socks. I think they're the brightest socks I've ever knit. I like them.
If only I wore yellow. There isn't a single yellow garment in my closet except these socks. Are socks considered garments?

If the sock pattern is not available anymore, is it possible to get the pattern repeat so we can use the stitch pattern with other sock patterns?
