A very lovely friend of mine turned 30 last week [ah, 30 I remember you fondly, as you blew by many, many years ago] and I wanted to help her celebrate this milestone in style, so I knit her some socks:
And last Monday, in a brief sunny break, we sipped iced tea in the garden and Joanne modelled her socks for the blog. Here is a detail shot of the stitch pattern and yarn:
In the skein I really though the blue and pink were dominate, but, as you can see, the purple won the pattern.
I don’t think they could be more perfect for my vibrant and, still so young in age but wise of heart, friend.
