Loksins!

September 13, 2007 By Carole

I finished my Locksins! just in time for my trip west.

loksins1.jpg

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.

  3. Cassie says

    September 13, 2007 at 7:08 am

    They look amazing. And I’m tickled that you made them. 😉

  4. DebbieB says

    September 13, 2007 at 7:10 am

    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.

  5. Kirsten says

    September 13, 2007 at 7:21 am

    They are really pretty! I love that yarn.

  6. margene says

    September 13, 2007 at 7:31 am

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

  7. Kelly says

    September 13, 2007 at 7:45 am

    beautiful!!!

  8. molly! says

    September 13, 2007 at 7:52 am

    Wow, those socks are gorgeous! I love the color of that yarn. Have a fun trip!

  9. Robin in VA says

    Love them…they are Purty!! Where are you going out West?! Have a safe trip…

  10. Deb says

    September 13, 2007 at 8:08 am

    Sah-Weet! Sounds like your going to need something to keep your tootsies warm out west too!

  11. Beth says

    September 13, 2007 at 8:21 am

    They are very beautiful! I think I’ve found something else to put in my Ravelry queue. 🙂

  12. Kelly says

    September 13, 2007 at 8:32 am

    Gorgeous socks! Those are next on my list.

  13. Julie says

    September 13, 2007 at 8:35 am

    They are beautiful!

  14. PumpkinMama says

    September 13, 2007 at 8:45 am

    Gorgeous!

  15. Karen says

    September 13, 2007 at 8:48 am

    Lovely socks! I wish I had wool socks on right now. It’s downright chilly this morning!

  16. Judy says

    September 13, 2007 at 9:50 am

    Carol, They are gorgeous! Have a great trip, I’ll be watching for updates.

  17. Karen says

    September 13, 2007 at 9:53 am

    Stunning 🙂

  18. elizabeth says

    September 13, 2007 at 9:55 am

    They look so SOFT! Great job!

  19. Sylvia says

    September 13, 2007 at 9:55 am

    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!

  20. Wanda says

    September 13, 2007 at 9:58 am

    Perfect combination. Have fun in UT!

  21. claudia says

    September 13, 2007 at 10:11 am

    So grassy green and purty. 🙂

  22. jillian says

    September 13, 2007 at 10:17 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!

  23. JessaLu says

    September 13, 2007 at 10:28 am

    Yarn and pattern go together very well! Beautiful knitting :o)

  24. cece says

    September 13, 2007 at 10:51 am

    those rock!

  25. Danielle says

    September 13, 2007 at 11:33 am

    You’re right — that is a perfect match of yarn and pattern!

  26. Carrie says

    September 13, 2007 at 11:43 am

    They’re wonderful!

  27. Annie says

    September 13, 2007 at 11:58 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!

  28. Vicki says

    September 13, 2007 at 1:08 pm

    They’re gorgeous, Carole!

  29. BigAlice says

    September 13, 2007 at 1:09 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)

  30. Lucia says

    September 13, 2007 at 1:11 pm

    Those count as eye candy.

  31. Barbara-Kay says

    September 13, 2007 at 1:18 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!

  32. Leah says

    September 13, 2007 at 1:37 pm

    They ARE perfect. And at the risk of sounding redundant, another pattern I have on my to-do list.

  33. Leah says

    September 13, 2007 at 2:06 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.

  34. Kristi aka Fiber Fool says

    September 13, 2007 at 2:47 pm

    GORGEOUS!!!! What a fun pair of socks. And enjoy UT!

  35. Carol says

    September 13, 2007 at 3:17 pm

    Nice 3 friends, one (or 2) socks!

  36. ~Kristie says

    September 13, 2007 at 4:06 pm

    Sweetie, those are not purty .. .they are BEAUTIFUL!

  37. Debi Leshin says

    September 13, 2007 at 5:45 pm

    Gorgeous socks Carole! Your knitting is just perfect!

  38. Rosie says

    September 13, 2007 at 5:57 pm

    Beautiful. I love greens and this yarn is fantastic.

  39. Tina says

    September 13, 2007 at 6:26 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!

  40. Susan says

    September 13, 2007 at 8:57 pm

    I don’t know if you’ll need those–it’s supposed to be near 90 here. . .

  43. Chris says

    September 13, 2007 at 9:13 pm

    Have fun! That pattern is so going on my to-do list – they’re gorgeous!

  44. tempe says

    September 14, 2007 at 12:18 pm

    I love ’em! Makes me want to knit a pair for myself!

  45. Beth S. says

    September 17, 2007 at 1:45 pm

    Just fabulous. Wear ’em in good health! 🙂

  46. Birdsong says

    September 19, 2007 at 10:05 am

    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:)

  47. anne says

    September 20, 2007 at 10:29 am

    i love ’em too! that’s a great color for the design . . a little spring for fall.
