I know, perfect season for wool socks, huh? Oh well. I started these forever ago. They are for a friend. I can't believe it took me so long to knit them. Soon (hopefully Tuesday) they'll be stuffed in an envelope and on their way to an exciting new life.
I used my favorite sock (non)pattern. It is pretty much the same as the ones I would make for Tessa when she was a little thing, only bigger. C/O 60 stitches over four needles (I think I used size 2 needles for these), K3 P2 rib for as long as I want to make it, heel, continue K3 P2 across the top of the foot until sock measures 8 inches from the edge of the heel, decrease toe & finish. Easy-peasy.

Your friend will treasure these socks. The colors are great for Fall.
Love your gift tag!
I just learned how to knit socks last week and made my very first one. You can see it on my FB page if you really want to, ;-) I'm excited to knit my first pair of socks.
If only I didn't have so many little hands helping me at the moment. Sigh.
Your socks are gorgeous!
Cute socks and I love the packaging.
Just catching up on my blog reading, your cards are stunning!
