It's been a long haul trying to find some decent cotton sock yarn. Other sheepless knitters will no doubt agree. When I was in San Francisco, I picked up some Panda Cotton at Imagiknit. This stuff is wonderful: springy, nice stitch definition, and good color palette (although some magenta and orange would be nice additions).
The pattern is Sodera and I can't wait to finish these up!
Panda Cotton is great stuff. The socks I have in it are super comfy, and they look like they'll be durable too.

Hi,
I'm just working on some new colors for Panda Cotton. We did have a magenta and an orange that didn't sell well and we dropped them, maybe I'll try another couple - solid colors sell much more slowly than the printed colors. I think it's shops not ordering them more than it is knitters not wanting them?

I am so glad you found some non-wool sock yarn, D!
