Karen's Socks Finished, Dave's Started

Brother Dave's partner Karen asked for dark Christmas socks. They're done and ready to wrap.

She's a Yoga teacher and is very active, so I hope this yarn holds up well for her.


Pattern: Basketweave Ribbing Sock

Yarn: Cascade Heritage Handpainted Sock Yarn

Color: 9922

Needles: Options 2.50mm circulars.

Knitting socks for Brother Dave with size 14 feet is no quicky, so his are next on the list. When I want easy knitting, I will pick them up and knit round and round on 72 stitches. Endlessly.

No complaining, just explaining. His socks are not a last minute project. I have 4-50 gram skeins of this yarn. 100 grams won't finished the foot. Purchasing two additional skeins leaves enough yarn for an additional pair of normal size socks.
