Pattern: Ridged Feather from Sensational Knitted Socks Yarn: Fortissima Colori
Needles: two size 1 circs
Yes, I know I am a bit late with these. They took longer than I expected. I have good reasons 1) I never do a pattern over the foot. I am just lazy that way, and 2) can you all see how well these two socks match?! I mean, just look at that perfectly matched pair. I am rather proud of that.
The socks were inspired by the Great Lakes since I live so close to Lake Michigan. I think it is only fitting that I worked on the socks (not as much as I would have liked) during my camping trip.
See how well the socks match all the lovely blues in Lake Heron? Not to mention those waves.I am off to mail the socks with a few extra goodies because I took so long.
EDIT What kind of town has a post card with a 25 year old picture of the hospital on it? Seriously, I bought a post card from my home town to send with the socks (as is tradition), and the ONLY post card I could find with ANYTHING from the town on it was a photo of the hospital. SHEESH
Happy knitting!

The socks remind me of a pretty blue lake with gentle waves. I like that stitch pattern.
Regarding the box of yarn, I am still trying to wrap my mind around all of it. How does a person say thank you for something like that!? They are incredibly generous people.

Gorgeous socks!
A picture of the hospital on a postcard?...
..."I visited LaPorte and ended up in the hospital, wish you were here."????
WTF?
