Sox Sox n More Sox !!


I have always wanted to learn how to knit socks!!!!! Well I had some extra time on my hands this winter !!!! Sooo I did some research, bought a few books, bout some sock wool, when it was on sale!!!! I already had a ton of double pointed needles !!! :):)
I amquite enjoying knitting socks!!!!!

Here is what I have done so far:


The beginning of Dominick's socks !! :)









Here are my latest pair of socks!!!! This is wonderful wool to work with!!!!! :):) These are for Dominick!!! :)











This is the 2nd pair of socks I made ! :)
The first pair were for my grandson Clark
This pair for my grandson Dominick !!!!!
I made one sock of this wool, first, my test sock, it was too big for Clark and too small for Dominick !
But that is ok ! I can still make one more to go with it :) If I get around to it of course, to give to Clark before he may outgrow it hehe :):)
Hmm I already started another pair for Clark tho they will match a kewl cotton pair I made for his mom :):)


This little green set I made for Clark for Christmas !!!
Oh and for the hat I made big matching Tassles for each side of the hat!!!!
He looks so so so cute with it on !!!!





I just had to make a mathcing pair of socks for little Clark !!!!!!





And here he is with his hat and sweater !!!! :):):)


Dominick got a red set for Christmas :):) And he too has mathcing socks now !!!! :):) There is nothing more fun than dressing up these little Grands !!! It is so so much fun :):)


These are a pair of socks I made for myself, !!
I made the very same pair for hubby, Terry!!!!
They are sooo so so soft!!!!!!!
Made with Bernat Alpaca Natural Blends!
I fully intend to use this wool again at some point!


I have yet to make socks for Sarah and Jessica and Hollie !!!!! :):):)
Which I will be doing quite soon :)
I would like to make a few more doilies ! And as well work on the little baby sets, and make a couple of afghans !!!!
All in good time I guess, right? :)

Have a perfect and wonderful day !!!!! :)
