winter hedgerows
I thought that the socks I made for my sister were actually quite gender neutral so I thought I'd try them again with a masculine feel for her husband: heavier weight wool and a more neutral colour. These are the biggest socks I've ever knitted so they took AGES. And I think they might even be a bit big :-/ Oh well... I've ravelled them here.
Here's the comparison:
I'm now in the process of trying to get pictures of each of the recipients in their socks in some zany situation. Let's see how I go.

Wow - great job. I tried to knit baby socks once and it is so fiddly. Especially the heel part with the extra needles and knitting back along the row. I think I gave up after one ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Laney.
