Socks

Now, I can't claim to be a sock expert, in fact if anything, I find them frustrating and slow to knit, yet I keep coming back to them and I love buying sock wool. The wool just catches my eye in the shop or online, and I have to buy it and then of course, I have to turn it into socks.

Every poor member of my family (except my husband) has had a pair of socks lovingly knitted for them since my love of socks began. Not a single pair has been worn as far as I know and  knitted sock love is just not being felt! Clearly, socks are just not the gift of choice! I can't think why. Gorgeous multi-coloured yarn, knitted to fit the foot of the receiver perfectly. What's not to like?

My first outings in sock knitting... maybe it was the colour choices?!

Well, in light of a lack of appreciation... I moved on!
