A friend of mine has had a streak of bad days and bad things recently and I wanted to do something special for her, so I’m making her socks. They’re very simple, because I’m using Regia jacquard and I thought any stitch pattern would be overwhelmed by the colorway. Anyway, I hope she’ll like them. One down, one to go!
what a sweet and thoughtful friend you are.
they look super comfy… and i’m sure she’ll LOVE them!
Can’t have a bad day wearing hand knit socks! :cheering:
I really do hope she’ll love them. She’s a knitter, too, but thinks that socks are “too hard.” These are special, too, because they’re my first “real” pair – i.e. fingering weight yarn and size 2 needles. I’ve done socks in worsted weight on 6s before and in DK weight and sport weight, but these are my first fingering weight “real” socks. I know she’ll appreciate the time that went into them and I hope it will inspire her to make the jump into making her own socks.
Aren’t you a great friend :cheering: Love the socks and so will your friend :cheering:
Thanks. She’s a special person, so I wanted to do something special for her.
wow, that sure is nice of you, and the thought behind it as well, trying to boost her into making her own socks!

I’m sure she will appreciate them! I love the colours!
How nice of you! I agree that you can’t have a bad day with such special socks on your feet. 
You are so sweet! The sock looks great; I’m sure she will
them!
There is nothing like wearing hand knit socks, it is like your feet are LOVED or something. I am wearing mine today and when I was walking to go pick up my daughter from preschool this morning I just felt like my feet were being hugged. It is a cool feeling. I could just be overly senimental and nostalgic too.
