Mystery Sock KAL

I haven't done a knit-a-long this month, i've been so bogged down with marking and other paperwork. However, a couple of days ago I spotted a mystery sock KAL on Ravelry and thought i'd give it a go, even though it takes me an age to knit sock when I know what they should look like!!
The KAL has been organised by Ruth Garcia-Alcantud - the designer behind rock and purl. You sign up for the pattern and get given it in installments - I get my first installment tomorrow.
My needles are sorted and i've looked through my stash for some yarn, i've been knitting lots of red socks, so this time I went for green.

This is some lovely BFL/Bamboo from WharfedaleWoolworks called Spring Greens, i'd bought it to knit some Cookie  socks, but never got around to casting them on! I'm sure it will be perfect for this project. It was wonderful to wind, so i'm hoping it will knit up beautifully and give the stitch deinition that this pattern has promised.
I'll reveal more as my project progresses ...
