Orange Fa Fa Fa Socks

Here are another pair of socks.
I took these away on holiday but they didn't get started.
I think this is the end of the sock wool and patterns which I pulled out in 2012.

Orange Fa Fa Fa Socks

I started the Paraphernalia socks with this yarn but it was far too busy for that pattern.  

This pattern was easy enough if you have knitted socks before.

The stripes are very bright and it does distract from the cables pattern.
 As this is an all over design it is OK with this yarn but I would choose a solid colour if I was to knit these again.  

The cable design goes all around the sock and is easy enough but it was a little tricky manoeuvering all the needles, especially when there was one stitch on the needle prior to the cable!
