I am so happy you discovered the joys of sock knitting! Obviously this will not be your only pair of knitted socks. Since you like knitting lace, you might want to try knitting "Jaywalker".

Your colorway is just so cool! I love the stripes effect, and the choice of colors. You are a very talented young man!

Hey,
Awesome socks! I'm one of those people that thinks socks are too hard to try. I don't know if I can handle it. Yours look awesome!
Thanks for promoting Canadian music!!! from a Canadian composer :)
That's cool about Kenny's quote. I wonder if he knows that. :)

I want music on my blog!!!! your socks look great! and I love the colors!!!!
Your socks definitely rock!
I have been getting the itch, even bought a bunch of needles.
Then I went to a Spin In and won a door prize and YUP, it was sock yarn in colors I would knit.
So I guess my next project on the needles is gonna be socks!
Hope it goes as smooth as yours.
