knitting lemonade

So I started a new pair of socks with the fab Cherry Blossom yarn I showcased in my last entry. I decided to go with a basic toe-up sock pattern...but of course we can't just do a "basic" sock. So I searched and searched my Vogue Knitting Stitchionary and found this stitch pattern:

It is stitch pattern 79 titled "lace rib."

So far, I like starting with toe. We'll see if I still feel that way when I reach the short-row heel...
