These are the first socks I have attempted using the two-circular needle method. It is also the first time I have tried working with a twisted stitch pattern. After a little experimentation, I think I figured it out. I really liked working off Cat Bordhi's chart. The pattern was pretty complicated (for me, at least), but it had enough variety to hold my interest. Even at that, the socks rested on the needles for months at a time. The twisted stitch pattern is highly visible and detailed, but not bulky. I will definitely try another pattern like this again.The yarn I chose was a little too fuzzy to show really great stitch definition. They are really comfortable, though. If I make them again, I would chose a yarn without a fuzzy finish.
