Here they are, just about finished modeling on my faux table top Christmas trees. This is what I've been working on for the past month. I love them so much, I'm dreading the moment I have to drop them in the post box:o( At the moment they are getting a bath, then off the the spa to get the kinks worked out and off to the post office they go to Massachusetts.
Details:
- 2 skeins of Koigu Main Color
- 1 skein of Koigu Contrasting Color (only 1/3 of ball is used)
- 2 size 2 circulars
- Update: off to the post office we went, and an hour later, and still no postage! The postal system kept crashing so, I'm back home and just signed on to www.usps.com then back to the post office I go.
I saw you working on these on Sunday at the bloggers meet up and looooove them. I think the colors you used were delicious and now I'm rummaging through my stash for something that would be appropriate :)

Love the socks! And I also love your label. I must confess I am afraid of sock knitting - seems far too complex for a beginner like me. One day... =)

Looks awesome! I love the paper you used for your sock sleeve and the "ripped" effect.

Those socks look fab! I love the wrapper you used (you're so crafty!!).

I love your packaging - that sleeve is ADORABLE. And to all your other readers, I am here to attest that that sock is even more beautiful in person!!

Lovely color! And I like your packing sleeve. Do you make them yourself or do you order them from somewhere?

I love the sleeve, you're so creative, and I love the socks. Sorry I missed the meet up Sunday. Have a great Christmas!!

Yes, the label is very nice! But the socks are even better. I, too, like kniting with koigu. Oh-so-soft.
