Okay, I've promised this and here it is.
The new sock pattern, Loksins!, is available for download.
I started this sock pattern several months ago, but it took a dedicated test-knitter and chart maker, a dedicated computer geek (by which term I convey the highest of compliments), two over-qualified proofreaders, and a bit of a push to get myself to finish the pair I'd started, to actually get this out into the world.
Many thanks to Sigga Sif and Jackie for all of their help. And to Julia and That Laurie for their proofreading. I did the easy part.
The price is $5 (US$). I'm still working on getting this into the sidebar (as well as the full version of the free Spring Anklets pattern). I'm a nervous wreck about letting this "baby" out on her own, but confident now that it's been fully vetted. If you have any questions please email me.
beautiful socks!

I like them very much - they remind me of Nancy Bush socks, and that's a very good thing!

It looks like a fun (and beautiful) pattern. I look forward to knitting a pair.

Oh my gosh, I was planning to make "fools rush" for my Sockapalooza pal but now how am I supposed to decide? I might have to make this one for myself. Beautiful pattern Cassie. :)

I just bought your beautiful pattern! As I have a large foot (women's size 10 1/2), I am really pleased that your pattern is easy to adjust for larger sizes. Thank you!

Gorgeous! Another skein from my stash has found its calling!

I wanted to tell you that the sock looks so beautiful, it looks balanced somehow, just perfect. And I'm sure the second is as well :)

This is really very, very pretty. What does Loksins mean?
I do hope, you soon sell an other one!

Just wondering - what foot width (measured at the ball of the foot) is this supposed to fit? I just bought the pattern, and it doesn't say.
Thanks! It's gorgeous.
