Yarn: Knitpicks Sock Garden in Zinnia
Pattern: Pretty much just made it up using the Knitters Handy Book of Patterns...mind you it is just simple ribbing carried down the instep.
I must tell you that my mom has been wearing her socks out of this yarn...even though its super hot, and they are wool...but I did make them...anyway, they are really blurring on the bottom...alot...keep this in mind when choosing this yarn. I don't think this soft merino is going to wear very well.

Cute! Good to know about there yarn. I wonder how this compares to other sock yarn, as I can only imagine all socks and the yarn they are made from take quite a beating on the feet.
You really are a crazy sock knitter! I love the stripes in this yarn with the ribbing. As for the blurring, I have a pair made from Koigu which is doing that on the heels.. so it might be a merino thing.
You are a crazy fast knitter with thouse socks!
I think this call for a blog remaning: So Many Socks, So Little Time! :)
Well done, they look great!
(...err, I meant reNaming. I'm sure you figured that out, but just in case.)
As usual, another great pair of socks!
Great pair of socks, I love the combination of the simple ribbing with the self striping yarn. I imagine most wool yarn will eventually felt a bit on the sole, hopefully it will "harden up" and not wear through.
To be honest my dear blogger, I found this by accident, but I'll be a regular visitor here. Anyway, they are really blurring on the bottom, always is good to know about all this.
well, I think that this is excellent because I like those socks actually I'm gonna buy some of them to my mom because I'd like that she looks like that, I know my father will be impressed and he won't use viagra anymore.
