That is what I am. I should have joined Lolly's Socktober Fest! I probablly would have got them done sooner.

Specs:
Yarn: Vesper Sock Yarn - Aqua Mellon
Needles: Addi Turbo US 1

Boring pattern, but I LOVE these. They are MINE BABY!

Thanks for the hints on the last post. I am taking June's advice. Nice vinegar bath.

Gorgeous color! I hate having to stop wearing sandals during the colder months, but to be honest, if I had nifty socks like that I would be wearing socks year round! Lovely!

Whoaaaaaa! Those are some eye-poppin' socks you got there!!! Love 'em. I think using a simple pattern is best when you want to show off the colors and these socks are all about color. I got an email notice from Kpixie that there was more Vespers in but it had apparently sold out within a matter of hours! If you see it anywhere else, please let me know. Have a great weekend!

Those are such fun and happy socks! I need to get some stripey sock yarn =)

Yay! Happy colors! I have three different colors of Vesper sock yarn and can't wait to make some funky socks!!
