Daily fiber therapy - the confessions of a knitting geek.

Look who's here! (Or: How many times can I say "beautiful" - and variations thereof - in one post?)
No wonder my Sockapaloooza socks took their jolly time getting here. They were traveling transatlantic style.


A beautiful package arrived from Oxford, England today.



In it were these beautiful socks.



Capturing stitch detail is not my strong point, but maybe you can see the beautiful shape of the pattern.


These were beautifully knit by Heidi, and are Elfine's Socks (links to PDF). Thank goodness you used superwash wool, Heidi, as I am not-so-good at separating laundry (though I mean to start washing all my hand-knit socks by hand... really!). And they fit perfectly! (I am wearing them right now.)

Bonus: they will exactly match Crichton... should it ever be finished.

Thank you, Heidi!!
