Socks...a Labor of Love
A father-son project....I started knitting Matt's socks (the grey and red striped, if it isn't obvious) while pregnant with Arlo. I finished one sock while still preggo and the other while in the hospital with my mother. Sam was fascinated by the project and asked for a pair "just like Daddy's" only he requested them to be red. So, here you see the final results. They have been completed for some time now and I am currently knitting another pair of socks with this great cotton/rayon blend yard I found at a yard sale. It is very irregular and is turning out to knit a great texture. I may actually keep these...well, we'll see. I have a hard time keeping the projects I knit. I always find a soul that is worthy of a beautiful hand knit gift...

Love the photos! I was going to email or call to discuss our sock projects...I'm finally doing the heel flap, what fun to learn something new. You inspire me...they look great!
beautiful socks! I want some... hate knitting socks.... hate them.. You get one done and then you have to do another! On that note I have all of my first Weasley sweater done but one sleeve, and of coarse my knitting needles have gone missing.
