Oh yes, it's time. I found a pattern I liked at Patternfish and got needles and yarn at a new to me local yarn shop, Bobbin's Nest Studio.
The pattern is written out in words rather than knitting code, and there's a diagram that corresponds to the letters in the instructions. It seems more like a sewing pattern to me, and it's very easy to understand the structure of the sock right from the beginning. The toe starts out something like "cast on x, then kf&b on first and last stitch until there are y stitches". Much easier for me than row-by-row instructions.
The yarn shop was very nice, they carry fabric and yarn, be still my heart, and the class space is lovely. If my sock attempt fails they have a sock class on the 24th. Oh, and I know I need another set of circulars, they're here somewhere. I'm not sure how I misplaced them so quickly...
