Now don’t fall over or anything but I’m about to post about knitting for two days in a row. Shocking, I know.
These are my Fannie Socks, knit while on vacation on Cape Cod, with Farmhouse Yarns Fannie’s Fingering Weight.
They are, of course, my usual plain stockinette with a picot edge and a slip stitch heel, type socks.
I think they are particularly yummy, and I’m blaming it on the yarn. Truly yummy stuff.
But it’s hot around here and I’m not putting them on. Really, I’m not.
Oh, alright. If you insist.

Nora’s right; they do look like sunshine! Perfect color for vacation knitting
margene Said,
Handknit socks are one of the best reasons to hope for cooler weather. You find the best sock yarns!
ChristyH Said,
Those are so cute. I love orange anything though.
Manise Said,
Oh pretty. I have to agree with Margene, you do find the best sock yarns!
Inna Said,
Gorgeous as usual.
Hillary Said,
Simple works really well when you start with gorgeous yarns. You sure know how to pick them!
Donna Said,
So pretty! The thought of wearing socks now is just ick!!!! You have made that pattern my favorite “no think” sock knitting. I always have a pair in progress. I took my latest to the Pawsox game last night. It’s so nice to knit and not have to think about it. Thank you for the idea.
Lisa Said,
Cheery!
Cheryl S. Said,
Very nice. I wonder if my sock mojo will ever return.
Teyani Said,
You really are inspiring me to go and finish up the mate to some single socks that I have.
Yes, the last hurrah of summer is happening here too. up to 90 today (and 44 right now)

Pretty, pretty…I’m doing some socks in Fannie’s Fingering Weight. The color is Old Roses and it’s working up so prettily.
Jean Said,
Really fun! They remind me of jelly belly or sorbets – fun colors that bring cheer.
Sarah Said,
Those are such cute socks, and the picot cuff is perfect.
Carol Said,
Pretty! I think you’ll get to wear them soon. Have you felt the chill in the air the last two mornings? Autumn is coming!

elizabeth Said,
Heh. I’m glad we insisted!
Norma Said,
Great picture (the last one). I’m so glad that the “Fannie” is not what I thought it was going to be, though. ROFL.
