I’m crushing so hard on these socks you guys - and I’m not even doing two at a time!!! 😲 I fell head over heels for this fab colorway by @rosapomar at @toltyarnandwool and I knew I had to have socks! Enter @susanbanderson amazing sock pattern - Smooth Operator Socks and I just may finish this pair (I have had one sock syndrome for years 🙊). They have been perfect for all the traveling we’ve been doing and a great way to relax while I’m in the middle of pattern grading. Plus how cute are they! Bonus they match all my clothes and fit perfect! Who else is a recent sock knitter? Anyone else getting over one sock syndrome?
.
P.S. I finally got my hands on the first book from @sarahjessicaparker new Imprint - “A Place For Us” by @ffmirza. I’m so excited to read it! What are you guys reading & knitting? Don’t forget to tag your pics with #bookmeetsknitter 📚.
