Monkey socks in Oops
August 26, 2007I finished my first pair of Monkey socks. They are done in Claudia Co. hand painted yarn in the color way of Oops, which is blue, purple and turquoise and brown/maroon. I made them for a lady in my mother’s club who won a charity auction. She wanted blue and earthy colors, not bright colors. I hope this is a color that she will be happy with. I love them. This was a pretty easy knit.

Tomorrow you will get to see a picture of Sierra’s “pretty” black eye. She was making a village up on her bookshelf while standing on a plastic table and slipped and hit her cheekbone on the toy box. She is okay, just bruised. Nothing like going to school the second week with a black eye. I went and got her some arnica for it. They sell it at Longs, the dissolving tablets and gel.
Love the socks! One of these days I will begin mine!
“Oh no!” On the black eye! Not a nice thing to have! I remember getting one when I was about 7 fallin on the merry-go-round right before school pictures….my mom was not pleased with me!
The more I see these socks around, the more I want to learn to knit. I love, love, love the Monkey socks. Good job!
These socks are GREAT! They have been on my ‘to make’ list for ages now. I really should get around to it! Black eye, bummer. This weekend my son impaled himself in the neck with a small branch. Can you say momma heart attack?
Lovely socks. I’m sure she will love them.
What a bummer about the eye!
pretty socks!
