symmetry

To achieve an interesting symmetry, Stephanie van der Linden writes, you may work the cables of your second sock in the other direction.

When I realized my oversight on the first repeat of my second sock - having forgotten to reverse the cable - I gave serious thought to going ahead with the sock as is. How noticeable would that little difference be? But having tinked back to correct it and continued on through almost two repeats, the answer is, quite noticeable. Which just goes to show, sometimes the littlest things make all the difference!
