I still can't seem to get out of using the sock yarn for socks.

This is pair 1 for May - No purl monkeys in Lorna's laces Georgetown inspired by Gilraen's examples.




And the first of a second pair in Regia nation in rainbow which is even brighter in real life.

I finished the rainbow socks on Wednesday.



I've also joined the monkey bandwagon with a pair of multicoloured monkey socks
