Whoo HOO! These are some Cheerful lookin’ threads!

Soft too – after I washed them in some lightly soaped water, they bloomed and got very nice. I even threw them in the dryer because I wanted to wear them today.

It is still brisk – around 30 degrees this morning which is 30 degrees WARMER than last week at this time. The Weatherman said we had zero or below since January 26.

It helps me to block it out by looking at my feet now. Maybe I’ll sprout some daffodils between my toes ;p

{oooh Melanie – where’s yer twosie?}

  1. Springy socks, I love them! So much fun and sure to beat away the winter doldrums. And look, you’re already ready for St. Paddy’s Day.

  2. Oh those are awesome! I LOVE green, and you’re right, they are very very fun looking socks. I am just beginning to try socks, hopefully I can make some similar someday!

  3. Dang those are great, just in time for St. Patty’s day coming up soon too. I am sooo ready for spring, I got my snow. Spring can come now.

  4. I can’t decide what I love more – those socks or that photo! Very sneaky on tiptoes, but they are such a sprightly green so I guess it just follows.

  5. Such cute patterns! Looks like there’s a lot of helpful info on your site, can’t wait til I have time to read it all :) I’ve been stuck on scarves forever and really want to get more advanced!

  6. You know, this is just the happiest darned picture. All weekend long, surrounded by ice and winter crud, I just had to keep checking back to see these socks. It just made me smile.
