This is the first pair of socks I have finished for 13 months Shocked  Let's hope it is the first pair of many more this year!!!

They are in Posh Sophia pure cashmere 4 ply in shade Passionate and are incredibly soft - I will not be wearing these to work Laughing  Laughing 56 st on 2.75mm needles vaguely using the Opal and Regia patterns. The 2 skeins knitted up slightly differently but I don't mind. I would DEFINITELY get more of this when I can afford it Wink
