And here we have another pair, done and dusted, and ready for the Christmas box.
Ethan’s feet aren’t quite man-sized yet, but they are close. His Mom said right now they have the same size feet, so for his pair I did 68 stitches around (instead of 64 as I’d do for his Mom), and knit them half and in longer before decreasing for the toe. This way there’s a little leeway for him to grow.
Like his brother’s pair, these are knit in Lion Brand Sockease. It’s not the softest (reminds me of Kroy and Regia) but I’m betting they will soften with washing and wear well.
Now that these are on, and knitting monogamy is still working for me, I’m going to continue on with my Christmas projects. Only maybe not socks this time… I’m feeling the need for something different.
Love the color of these! Maybe you should knit a Hitchhiker!!!

Great boy socks. You were wise to make them a tad big. Boys grow way too fast.

Love those socks! If I were Ethan’s Mom, I would borrow them. You are creating such a great stash of Christmas gifts. Everyone will want to be on your gift list.
