Dorothy, I suppose I deserve all that teasing. I finally buckled under the pressure and cast on a sock.
That's how far I got before ripping back to the cuff again. See that ladder? So not cool. This yarn contains 7% elastic which makes it lovely and stretchy, which I totally adore, but which also makes it a bit of a pain to knit. Any hints on knitting with this yarn without over-stretching??

Those boats in the first picture aren't going any where fast, are they?
I like the yarn colors.
I didn't use that kind before, but I've used Patons Stretch Sock. I pulled the yarn pretty much like I usually do on all other socks. I've always been told that when you start the "new" needle to pull more on the second stitch than the first stitch. That helps avoid ladders better.
