When working on Christmas stuff, I almost always leave Dave’s present to last. This is because I always have a couple things under the tree for him, and because he’s totally understanding if he doesn’t get his new socks until Boxing Day.
But I don’t think this year is going to be much of a problem in that department.
Because I’ve already cast on for the first one and I’m making pretty good progress. Nothing fancy, as per usual lately – 1-1 ribbing for 10 rows, then switch to 3-1 for the rest of the leg. I’m just letting the yarn do it’s own thing, which is a pretty neat swirly-pool. The yarn is Knit Picks Stroll, and the colourway is called Yeti. And I don’t know about you, I think they named it right, because all I’m seeing is this guy…

That is so perfect! He’s going to love them. I’ve made a few with the same pattern after you told us about it and I love them.
