This was my first pair of toe-up socks and I really enjoyed knitting this pattern. It's just complicated enough to make it interesting, but not too overwhelming with detail. The cast on is just a little confusing at first, but I found a tutorial on Youtube that helped me through it. The socks are perfect for wear-around-the-house slippers.
