Happy Friday, everyone! I hope everyone has fun weekend plans upcoming. I'm not sure what we're going to do, but hopefully the heat will break! It was hot again yesterday, which I can't complain too much, as it is good beach weather. The bad thing about the heat is that I finally finished my husband's very warm socks!
He's so happy to have them finished that he even wore them the night I finished, despite it being like 95 degrees that day. I'm so glad that he loves them, but man men's socks are big! I'm currently making a second sock for myself (as you saw on WIPW), and it's going SO much faster. Luckily, the next few pairs I have to make are for women. LOL
Materials:
Knit Picks Imagination in Frog Prince
Needles: US Size 2
Pattern: I made it up myself, making a basic sock with 72 sts
Milo looks SO uninterested, doesn't he? He just wanted to go to bed at this point
Share your FOs!
YAY, congrats on finishing the socks! :D So I guess there will be no more complaints about one cold foot or anything? ;)
ReplyDeleteI wish I could say it's faster to make socks for myself, but my feet are only about a half inch shorter than my father's. *sigh*
Happy weekend!

ReplyDeleteLovely socks! One of these days I should try knitting socks too.

ReplyDeleteThose socks turned out great :-)
ReplyDeleteThey look great!!! Milo does look a little bored! Haha!
ReplyDeleteThe socks are great! You are so lucky to have a knit-worthy husband. Putting the socks on right away and keeping them on is so nice.
ReplyDeleteThe socks turned out great! What a wonderful sport your husband is to wear them in that heat.
ReplyDeleteReally nice! And yes, Milo looks quite uninterested :).
ReplyDeleteMilo does seem to be unimpressed by the handknitted socks -- good thing your husband appreciates them :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
nice socks! i'm cheating just a tad again, my fofs are birthday decor related. :) but they are still finished objects just not yarn related.
ReplyDeletehave a great fof day!!!
I have smaller-man-sized feet, so yes, it does suck knitting larger socks. Look good though!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I was just going to say something about the PJs when I came to Milo's long suffering look! I get a lot of that when I have to stay up to finish a round or a repeat, or graft something or .... well, you know!
ReplyDeletethey look awesome, love the colours in them :)
ReplyDeleteLove the socks! Looks like they fit perfectly! You have a corgi! So cute!
