As I told you yesterday, I finished a pair of socks over the weekend. That is no small feat these days as my sock knitting has been rather, errrrr, slow this year.
There’s nothing like a looming deadline (hello Halloween!) and a few gentle reminders from a friend who happens to lurve Halloween to inspire a race to the finish line, though.
And so, I have new Halloween socks for my friend, Anne.
The yarn is Knitterly Things Vesper Sock Yarn, and the color is called, not surprisingly, Candy Corn.
Of course I had to pick up a bag of candy corn for the glamour shots. Would ya just look at those fabulous stripes? Perfectly matched and not because I did anything special but because Julia is a-freakin-mazing at dyeing striped yarn.
Normally a pair of socks this pretty would be mighty hard to give away but for a friend like Anne? It’s a piece of cake. Or maybe I should say, it’s a piece of candy corn.
Those socks make me want to rush out for Candy corn!
Really cute!
What TASTY socks! Those stripes are just divine.
Spectacular! They just make me smile!
‘Tis the season!
How fun to have a perfect pair of socks for Halloween, for fall and for the whole winter!!
These socks are so cute!! Anne is a lucky lady, what a great gift!
Very cute! Julia is the master of stripes. WOW!
Anne is going to love them, what a special gift
Cute photo; brava! Which reminds me – I’ve got Halloween Ghost sock yarn to knit up! Can I do it before Halloween? Unlikely.
Ummmm…I don’t dare buy candy corn because I love to munch it with peanuts. i assume these beautiful socks are low cal!
They look great!!! You are such a great friend
Love, love, love these!!! I want to learn to make socks now. Any books or websites suggestions?
Perfect for Halloween! They are adorable.
Perfect!
Oh my, for cute!
Picot edged socks are my favorites! So pretty.
Those cute socks make me want the yarn…..maybe for next year, now. And, I have your pattern, haven’t made them yet, and don’t remember – (I’ll have to hit my pattern stash to find it) – are the heels like these? Love the heels! Love the socks. Thanks for making us drool 😉
These are adorable!
cute! ????
haha! that “????” in my comment above was a emoji. imagine a halloween pumpkin and a candy corn instead!
Fabulously done and with time to spare! And the photo shoot is pretty awesome as well. You never cease to amaze, Miss Carole!
Gah! Those are fantastic!! I’m getting a tooth ache just looking at them.
LOVE these!!! Candy corn is one of my addictions. Not even one bite for me this fall or I will fall down the candy corn hole.
