Sock-a-delic

I have mentioned before, I think, that I dream of a multi-coloured sock drawer, filled to the brim with wonderful hand knit socks *grins*

Well, I'm getting there:


It's a definite start - seven pairs of awesome socks *laughs* I handwashed them all at the weekend, so I had them all out and brightening up the drying rack.

One thing I did notice when taking the picture above...


My toxic swamp socks are the only pair that don't feature the colour orange *laughs* I do have some non-orange sock yarns in my stash, so maybe it is time to use those ;) As much as I love orange, the aim is for a multi-coloured sock drawer, rather than an orange sock drawer!

Oh, and you can blame the puntastic post title on cunning boyfriend ;)

  1. Oh my what a beautiful collection of socks! I would love to only have hand knitted socks in my drawer, I've only got 1.5 pairs at the moment though so a bit of a way to go!
