I used about 2.1 balls of Bendigo Woollen Mills' Rustic 12 ply in Elm. The .1 of a ball was courtesy of knittyrobyn from Ravelry. More pics here or on ravelry.
Oh and I finished the bumpy socks started just before our Japan trip.
The yarn is from Live2Knit, Joan in colour Choc Cherry. The pattern is based on Gentlemen's Half Hose in Nancy Bush's Knitting Vintage Socks. I think I started with more stitches and made a longer heel, and used a tubular cast on. Needles were 2.5mm KnitPicks Options dpns.

That blanket is amazing! The socks are pretty too!
Ah, LOVE that blanket! Yours is beautiful! (I want to make one but it looks a little complicated - I must though, it's so pretty!)
Nice socks!
Stunning blanket Elaine.
