Allergies and ribbed lace

Something has been kicking my ass for the past 2 days. Either I have a cold or for the first time, I have become a victim of allergies. I took some allergy medicine this morning so maybe that will help.

After knitting for a bit on the Sock Candy socks, I discovered that my gauge was way off. I frogged and started with a new pattern-Ribbed Lace from Sensational Knitted Socks. Now usually my lazy ass picks the easiest to memorize, 2 row repeat pattern but not this time. Ribbed Lace is a 24 row repeat but actually pretty easy to do. I think it works much better with the yarn too.
