I had one particular bad day last week, and to top it off... when I came home, my laptop wouldn't work. The power cord had gone bad, and our battery is sick. So these socks have been finished for a few days. I made them for my husband, and they are a little snug. I'm not sure he likes them... I hope they will loosen up with wear.
They are from Sensational Knitted Socks by Charlene Schurch. It's in Handmaiden Casbah sock in Earth. I love this yarn.
This second picture is more color accurate.
And, as I mentioned I am on Day 2 of no antihistamines. I have my allergy testing next week. My eyes are pink and swollen, my head feels fulls, I keep sneezing, and my ears hurt. *sigh*
PS-->sorry about your laptop. that is a real bummer...
ReplyDeletethe socks are lovely!
ReplyDeletehope your allergy test goes well. :-)
Ugh. I hope you make it. I seem to remember getting antihistamines from the allergist after the test when I had it done before. So you don't have to wait until you get home. And I bet those socks will relax after a washing if you don't put them in the dryer. Very handsome socks! :-)
ReplyDeleteThose socks look really nice, I like how the colors appear in the sock. I might have to try this yarn!
ReplyDeleteReally cool yarn. I love the colorway.
ReplyDeleteI hope that your allergies don't completely kill you. It sucks being so allergic to the world.
No antehistamines? In Kentucky? In April? Oh, lord, hand in there!
