I found something rather unusual in the garden the other day. Wanna see?
Can you tell yet what I found? Let me see if I can coax them out.
Is that better? Can you see them now?
Ahhhhh. There they are in their full glory. A pair of socks. Whaddya know.
Truth be told, I hauled ass to finish these this week so that I’d have something to post about today. It was totally worth it, though, because I love these new socks. The yarn is Cider Moon Icicle (tragically no longer available) and the pattern is my basic 64 stitch sock recipe.
They are perfect for Project Spectrum’s Earth component, too. I love the browns and greens together.
And they look great with blue jeans. Or daffodils. Take your pick.
Uh, you have one really cool garden there! 😉 All I find in mine are weeds.
Great things are bloomin’ in your garden!
Lovely socks! 🙂
In the first photo, the lovely sock looks like an enormous (friendly) caterpillar! Tiptoeing through the…jonquils?
Gorgeous yarn! I have six skeins of Cider Moon in semi-permanent stash: five Glacier and one Icicle. I cannot bring myself to knit with it, because there won’t be no mo’. So, it’s pet yarn now. Is that weird?
They are perfect with jeans and daffodils!!! What a lovely pair of socks.
So cute! I love the brown and green too!
Love the color! I’m so glad we were able to coax them out into the light of day. The mix of colors is fabulous!
Fabuloso! Maybe I’ll take inspiration from the squill in my garden (now blooming in abundance) to work on some blue ones…
Very nice indeed!
WOW…they are beautiful! Perfect for jeans.
Nice pair of socks! I love the striping of this yarn.
Beauteous socks!
Those are subtle and lovely.
See – I wish I was a gardener!
Yum!
Nice socks! The Daffodils are lovely too.
Love those socks! Wish I could find some of them growing in with my spring flowers!
Love the color! My favorite greens! Nice Job!
OMG….I thought that first one was a snake! Great socks, notwithstanding.
Awesome! Both the socks and the daffs.
I love that you are knitting in order to post. Isn’t that a little backwards? Cute socks – too bad the yarn isn’t available any more.
Beautiful socks; I LOVE the colors! And will you look at those daffodils; I still haven’t had one open, but soon I think.
Those colors are right up my alley. I adore them! 🙂
It’s so sad about Cider Moon. I hope they can work out their legal issues and get back to making gorgeous yarn.
Beautiful!
You have a far more interesting garden than I ever will.
They’re great – I love the green and brown. But I like ’em better with the jeans. Those first couple of photos look a little scary.
Great colors! I like them with the Daffodils. Jeans are optional, right? heh
yummy! those are my favorite colors right now. 🙂 the socks look great – i love a plain stockinette sock with tiny stripes – getting ready to cast on some for my Mom. 🙂
I love those – and I’m not a green person at all, but those are gorgeous!
(((hugs)))
Lovely! And a perfect name for them too!
Beautiful socks! I wish I could find something that wonderful in my garden.
Well, imagine that! Socks out in the garden! They did look like a caterpillar though…it’s funny how we each have one sock pattern that we just love!!! For me it’s Yankee Knitters Designs Classic socks for the family.
Beautiful socks! The daffodils are quite lovely too.
LOL…they DO look like giant catapillars in there…
what a great spring colorway!! I would be wearing those more than most of my current ones:)
I’m still trying to snatch up a skein or two on Ravelry. It’s so hard to come by.
Nice socks, btw.
Great socks! In the first pic you might also think it is a creature in the garden… love the colors!
They are so pretty, Carole! I love the photos.
VERY pretty! What great colors!
The socks — and the daffs — are lovely!
Avocados DO belong in the garden. But it is odd to see them in the Northeast. Nice shots.
You were rocking the green yesterday too! Love the socks.
Those colors are just gorgeous, as are the socks. Spring has sprung!
Love the socks! All cozied up in the daffodils…what a great idea, Carole! They’re beautiful.
poi-fect socks for jeans.
Beautiful socks – I love the color!
And I thought the only avocados were here in California. 😉 Those socks look wonderful. The color combination is fantastic, although Cider Moon did have quite the talent for that.
