You can do it!! That yarn is so cool. It will be worth it to finish and wear it around. :)

A little bit of 3, a lot of 4.
That's a very clever idea! They look super cozy. Thanks for sharing the link.
I have a set of the smaller gauge chiaogoo twist interchangables and I love them! The metal is smooth, the shape is good for me (pretty sharp and pointy), and the red cables do not kink. I pretty much only use those and hiyahiya metal double points these days.
I have friends who swear by the knitters pride/knit pro karbons, but they feel a little sticky to me. I get the same feeling from wood and bamboo needles. I knit continental. Not sure if that makes a difference.
Do you have a chance to try out the needles before you buy, or just buy a single circular as a test? I think it depends on your knitting style and the fibers you like to use.
It is definitely a good one to admire on the shelf. You have a lot of socks queued up!
Thanks! :)
Welcome back! That yarn is a stunner. It's a good repayment. :)
Lucky friend!! These look like a great pair of socks. I like the yarn striping.
Aw, I love their names! I think I double counted one of the black ones. I can see five now.
The cat king!
Looks nice and cozy. You finished it really fast!
What did you think of the heel? I like the fit and look on the pair I'm doing right now. I thought it was neat to knit. I ended up with some gaps on the sides, just grabbed a few stitches to close them after the heel.
The general measurements in the pattern for toe up didn't work for me (too long). I ended up ripping back and doing it shorter.
