These socks were a fun and speedy knit. Each sock took just two days to knit.
Laeticia – a sock pattern from the Twist Collective, by Stephanie van der Linden. I knitted these for myself from Toddy, my favourite sock yarn from The Yarn Yard.
A Project Spectrum project.
Earl Grey socks in Toddy yarn. Basically a lovely semi-plain bloke pattern…

The Grreen ‘n Grrowlly version of the #1 Husband socks, in Hipknits cashmere. Not washed and blocked yet.
Done!
