Socks Really do Rock
Finally! Fini! It took me long enough to get the second sock off of the needles but I finally finished the socks I made for a certain someone who will be receiving them in a few short days. Nothing like a deadline to get my tushie into gear ;-)
The pattern for these 3x1 ribbed socks is a free one you can find at Spun. JessaLu dyed some Knit Picks sock yarn and wasn't too happy with the results but the colors were perfect for me because the intended giftee is a Red Hatter. Now all I have to do is cross my fingers and hope they will fit her. Stay tuned for some (hopefully) in use pics!

I agree with the others that the socks are excellent. The rib brings out the colors and the toe looks great. Were these toe up or cuff down? The link to the pattern isn't working for me.

There's something so pure about a nice rib sock.
