Wednesdays Are For Knitting: Rainbow Birthday Socks

November 12, 2014 By Carole

I finished Hannah’s birthday socks! Yes, her birthday was back in September. Whateverrrrr. It’s not like she would have been wearing them until now anyway.

Aren’t they pretty? So pretty!

Those gorgeous and perfectly matched stripes are brought to you by the amazing Julia of Knitterly Things.

The color is called Rainbow Love and I don’t think it could be more aptly named – especially since I love this yarn and Hannah loves rainbows. And yoga. And unicorns. (Just making sure you are paying attention.)

So, finally, a pair of finished socks. Production is down but enjoyment is high.

    How clever of you to finish those great socks when it’s getting cold and Hannah can really appreciate them and all their rainbow warmth!

    AWESOME! I can just see the smile on Hannah’s face when she puts those on…

    As an economist by training, I can tell you that scarcity increases both value and enjoyment. Way to maximize Hannah’s birthday gift for her!

    The socks are gorgeous, and just perfect for Hannah! I’m sure she didn’t even mind them being a bit after her birthday … after all, getting presents after your birthday just extends the fun 🙂

    Verra nice – a more muted rainbow coloration which is pleasing. Going now to check out that yarn because I really need more sock yarn…

    It has been a long, long time since a picture of picot edge socks has inspired me. But these did it. Thanks for making me feel the spark of yarn lust once again.

    Gorgeous socks—after seeing so many pairs of Vesper socks on your blog, I started following Julia’s website, and I joined the sock yarn club for October-December. (Winter is going to be a little less bleak here.)

    Love! We have winter here today…snow, wind and cold temps. Hannah’s colorful socks and NO snow in the pictures is a joy. 🙂

    As long as you’re enjoying – then that’s what counts! They are adorable.

    LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!! I bought some Vesper yarn, but not sure my hands can handle knitting socks. Hannah’s socks are SO wonderful!!

    I knew that had to be Vesper sock yarn! She does such great stripes. I have two skeins marinating in the stash right now.
