Because I have socks.
Mad About Plaid socks to be exact. (Opens to a PFD.)
During the summer, Debi asked me to test knit a pattern for her that she was going to offer in her Ravelry sock group. Yesterday, she blogged about it. So now I can, too.
The pattern is a lot of fun to knit and goes very quickly if you're a compulsive little freak like me.
Shut up.
Ironically, I was wearing my pair yesterday, so taking photos was fairly easy. Getting well lit photos, not so much, but y'all understand.
Oh, and I used 2.75 mm dpns, Pace sock yarn (the pink and green were leftovers), and much less ribbing because I love me a shortie sock.
Tomorrow!
Love!
Or something...
Happy Sunday, people!
Those are very, very cute socks. Thank you and thank Debi!

Very cute socks. I especially like the color combination. I liked them over at Debi's and I like them here, as well. Nice pattern, Debi.

seems like the alternating colors takes out the boorish part -- and looks cool

Pretty socks! You should totally do those cool ones in Socks, Socks, Socks. :D And I think it is Sunday. Maybe. I got lost in the piles of stuff trying to find all my crafty fiber stuff.
What else are you knitting?

Can I just say that EVERY sock is a quick knit for you? That sock is darling. I love the details! Great job!

Cool socks. That would be a great way to dress up some of my standard ribbed socks.

Those are lovely and look like they would be my complete undoing if I tried to knit a pair. Do you know how wonderful you are?
