C.C. Almon and I have several things in common. She was born in the town where I now live (although she lives across the ocean now). And we're both fans of Doctor Who and other geeky fandoms. So I love the inspiration behind so many of her patterns.
She has a whole series of
Doctor Who inspired socks. From the
Come Along Pond Socks to the
Socks for Ten, I don't know which ones I'd want to start with!

If you're not a Doctor Who fan, don't despair. C.C. has a couple of other fandoms covered, from Firefly/Serenity (
Also I Can Kill You With My Brain Socks) to Outlander (
Lady of Lallybroch Socks).
Not into any fandoms? No worries. C.C. has a collection of
coffee-inspired socks for you. I think my favorites are the
I Love You More Than Pumpkin Spice Socks.
Not into socks? Try
Round, Round, Get Around Shawl or
Striations.
Definitely a designer to check out and keep an eye on. By the way, she has a really fun podcast that she does with her daughter, called
Geeky Girls Knit.
