Christmas Light Socks
Behold my first pair of socks 2008.
Aren't they cheerful?
The yarn is Sophie's Toes and the color is called "Christmas Lights" and that's just what they look like to me.
Of course, the real Christmas Lights are all put away for the year but these socks will be a sweet reminder of the season until it comes around again.

Love 'em! I can't believe you already have a new pair of socks and it's only January 10.

Bright, cheery and beautiful! It must have been fun to watch the colors come together as you knit them.

You have been a knitting machine my friend! I love the colors...very festive indeed!

Very cheery socks!! I loved your picture of all the socks drying on the line near the chimney. These will fit right in!! :)

Perfect for a grey winter day! And you know, when you think about the colour, they would even be perfect for Cinco de Mayo.

Posted by: anne at January 9, 2008 10:17 AM
Picot edge!!! That always makes me so happy. :-)
Posted by: Beth S. at January 9, 2008 10:27 AM
Love the bright, happy colors, and the slightly pointilist way they all play together -- not quite stripes, but not quite dots, either.
Posted by: Ann Rose at January 9, 2008 11:01 AM
Adorable! Those pictures are making me very very happy! Love the picot edge too.
Posted by: Emily at January 9, 2008 11:11 AM
They look so cozy - and fun! Perfect for these gray winter days...

Perfect name for the yarn!

Pretty and cheerful socks you have there. And look at you, having a finished object already.

Those *do* look like Christmas lights. How pretty!

Christmas lights, indeed! They're lovely.

Posted by: E at January 9, 2008 2:47 PM
You know, I am not normally a big fan of gaudy colors, especially a lot of them in the same skein of yarn. But those socks... yum.
Posted by: Lucia at January 9, 2008 3:55 PM
Nice and bright. And they are good for Valentine's Day as well because there is a lot of red in them.
Posted by: Mia at January 9, 2008 4:37 PM
Love 'em!
Posted by: Ruth at January 9, 2008 11:21 PM

Those do look festive! Now I can't start mine 'cause I have 6 socks going.
Posted by: paula at January 13, 2008 10:45 PM
So pretty, those socks, AND that yarn! I've never heard of it, and I see she's sold quite a bit through her etsy site. I'll have to keep my eye out to see if she offers that colorway again.
