I've started these in an attempt to have my pile of socks ready in time for Christmas presents  santa  I will not put myself in the same situation I was in for the first week of December last year when I needed at least 5 pairs in 23 days...my own fault for asking if there was anything special my family wanted for Christmas. Note to self....shut up!

The pattern is Sailor's Delight from 2-at-a-time Socks knitted with Sock It To Me Colori in shade 33.

Tracy

LOL - I wondered what on earth this was going to be!  I've spent most of my life in a naval town and by the sea and the term Sailor's Delight has rather different connotations ....  Rolling Eyes  Wink  Laughing

But hurrah, it's socks!  Phew.  And a mighty fine sock that is too, beautiful colours  Very Happy
