Loksins!
I finished my Locksins! just in time for my trip west.
Aren't they purty?
The pattern, of course, is Cassie's and the yarn is Judy's Ball and Skein.
I can't even tell you how tickled I am to have socks made with one friend's pattern and another friend's yarn. Particularly when the pattern and yarn are such a great match.
They are absolute perfect and I love 'em!

Wonderful marriage of pattern and yarn! They look so comfy. Have pattern and Judy yarn- in my queue.

Perfect match of pattern and yarn. They are lovely.

They look amazing. And I'm tickled that you made them. ;-)

Those are beautiful! The knitter of my Loksins is in time out for bad behavior (and also, possibly, cluelessness). But I will finish them before cold weather hits, I hope.

They are really pretty! I love that yarn.

They look so cool! You might need them in the evenings from the sound of things. TOMORROW!

Sah-Weet! Sounds like your going to need something to keep your tootsies warm out west too!
Posted by: Deb at September 13, 2007 8:08 AM
They are very beautiful! I think I've found something else to put in my Ravelry queue. :)

Gorgeous socks! Those are next on my list.

Lovely socks! I wish I had wool socks on right now. It's downright chilly this morning!
Posted by: Karen at September 13, 2007 8:48 AM
Carol, They are gorgeous! Have a great trip, I'll be watching for updates.
Posted by: Judy at September 13, 2007 9:50 AM
Stunning :-)
Posted by: Karen at September 13, 2007 9:53 AM
They look so SOFT! Great job!

Aha. Digging through my stash for a lighter shade of green. My first swatch didn't look quite right -- and it's because the green was too dark. Thanks for the helpful hint!
Posted by: Sylvia at September 13, 2007 9:55 AM
Perfect combination. Have fun in UT!
Posted by: Wanda at September 13, 2007 9:58 AM
So grassy green and purty. :)
Posted by: claudia at September 13, 2007 10:11 AM
Gorgeous! And a perfect fit. Green seems like such a fitting color, although I can figure out why seeing as how the pattern doesn't have little clovers in it or something!
Posted by: jillian at September 13, 2007 10:17 AM
Yarn and pattern go together very well! Beautiful knitting :o)
Posted by: JessaLu at September 13, 2007 10:28 AM
those rock!
Posted by: cece at September 13, 2007 10:51 AM
You're right -- that is a perfect match of yarn and pattern!
Posted by: Danielle at September 13, 2007 11:33 AM
They're wonderful!
Posted by: Carrie at September 13, 2007 11:43 AM
They are so pretty. And I think you are right about the perfect marriage of pattern and yarn. I have some of that Ball and Skein yarn and I think I'll go get the pattern from Cassie. Thanks!
Posted by: Annie at September 13, 2007 11:58 AM
They're gorgeous, Carole!
Posted by: Vicki at September 13, 2007 1:08 PM
Ooh, those are lovely! I love how the subtle variegation works with the pattern. I am *green* with envy for them (HAHAHAHA! Is it Friday yet? I'm already laughing at my own jokes)
Posted by: BigAlice at September 13, 2007 1:09 PM
Those count as eye candy.
Posted by: Lucia at September 13, 2007 1:11 PM
Oh, I say, well done! It's a shame to put a shoe over those.
And, the best part: your sock needles are available now! VBG!
Knit on!
Posted by: Barbara-Kay at September 13, 2007 1:18 PM
They ARE perfect. And at the risk of sounding redundant, another pattern I have on my to-do list.
Posted by: Leah at September 13, 2007 1:37 PM
Thank you for sharing your Loksins...these are high on my list of socks to knit. I just got my first hank of Ball and Skein too and love that yarn as well. I got Rainy Day Blues.
Posted by: Leah at September 13, 2007 2:06 PM
GORGEOUS!!!! What a fun pair of socks. And enjoy UT!
Posted by: Kristi aka Fiber Fool at September 13, 2007 2:47 PM
Nice 3 friends, one (or 2) socks!
Posted by: Carol at September 13, 2007 3:17 PM
Sweetie, those are not purty .. .they are BEAUTIFUL!
Posted by: ~Kristie at September 13, 2007 4:06 PM
Gorgeous socks Carole! Your knitting is just perfect!
Posted by: Debi Leshin at September 13, 2007 5:45 PM
Beautiful. I love greens and this yarn is fantastic.
Posted by: Rosie at September 13, 2007 5:57 PM
Wow! Beautiful! (making note to self to move that pattern up in the queue) All the better since all the parts come from friends!
Posted by: Tina at September 13, 2007 6:26 PM
Beautiful socks!!
Posted by: Susan at September 13, 2007 7:15 PM

Posted by: Teyani at September 13, 2007 8:12 PM
I don't know if you'll need those--it's supposed to be near 90 here. . .
Posted by: Alarming Female at September 13, 2007 8:57 PM
Have fun! That pattern is so going on my to-do list - they're gorgeous!
Posted by: Chris at September 13, 2007 9:13 PM
I love 'em! Makes me want to knit a pair for myself!
Posted by: tempe at September 14, 2007 12:18 PM
Just fabulous. Wear 'em in good health! :-)
Posted by: Beth S. at September 17, 2007 1:45 PM
Your Loksins are terrific and in one of my favorite colors... bet you got lots of oohs and aahs on your trip. Last time I flew, the security checker admired my handknit socks:)
Posted by: Birdsong at September 19, 2007 10:05 AM
i love 'em too! that's a great color for the design . . a little spring for fall.
