Finally…

I started these socks for my daughter in July.. and then with a book contract.. they went on hold until this last week.

But they are DONE!DSC03263 The yarn used is

Black Trillium Fibre Studio Roman Blue Sock yarn in the Colorway “Cassie”.  I had this yarn custom dyed for my daughter in her favorite brown an pink colors.

The pattern I used is

Sunday Swing Socks by Kristel Nyberg from the Summer 2009 issue of Knitty. The only difference I made in them was that I only did 2 repeats of the pattern instead of  5-7 of them so that they would be ankle socks rather than full length socks.

They Turned out pretty good don’t you think?

I have been wanting to post a picture of these for a while! :)

I crocheted these little socks on the Train on the way to Sock Summit this past August.  Each one took me less than 1/2 hour to make.

Sock Yarn is Red Heart Heart and Sole.

A while back I posted about some awesome sock yarn I got from Black Trilium that she custom dyed for me.  It is an awesome brown and pink colorway that these pictures do not even do justice for.  And She named the colorway after my daughter!

Wel, I finally started the socks… here is a preview:
