Words that describe these socks are ~ darling, dainty, delightful, durable. More words are practical, comfortable & completely reminiscent of the bygone era of bobby socks. (I still have yet to make a fresh white pair, with powder blue or blush tones for contrast trim). They’re smart and tough too, evoking for me a very pretty tomboy girl of sixteen. Yes, definitely and understatedly pretty, from the frilly top down to the sturdy toe.
And now . . . to celebrate !

What a great Christmas gift, after I make myself a pair!!!
They look great love the picot edging! Love to win the pattern.

Cute socks! I love the picot edging.
They are lovely hen. Funnily enough, I can imagine them as bobby socks too, straight out of ‘grease’ or ‘happy days’ with the fonz! X
Look at all the cute colors and sizes you’ve worked out! They are wondrous!
Those socks are truly unique. They are lovely. I hope I’m a winner, because…. you have once again hit on a winner of knitting patterns!
This pattern is another winner! I love the way you’ve combined a charmingly simple design with interesting techniques for a result that’s both pretty and practical.

Yeah for the pattern being released! Now I can make a pair just like the gray and pink ones you first displayed…thank you!
These are tooooo cute for words. I love the little peerie and matching picot tops. How sweet is that? The pile of delicious colors makes my fingers itchy to knitsy the soxes.

HI! I found your blog from Karen’s blog “did you make that?”. There are so many sewers that knit that I am finding I would like to try it. These are such cute socks! My daughter knits. Do you think I could pick this up with a bit of practice?
