Spiral socks are stretchy, yes, and comfortable. They look a bit plain when worn - the ribbed pattern is lost.

It's nice that (since they lack a heel) they often last longer due to no wearout there ;) But their best benefit is in child wear, when they "grow" with the child.

They are easy to knit though you have to count rows and stitches - here I had a k3, p3 pattern for 4 rows before moving this pattern 1 stitch to the left.

Yes, I'm convinced that Creative Coin is the right thing for us needleworkers. And I hope all of us stake their CCC so that we all can benefit from that :)
