Monkeys and Puffins!
Pattern: Monkey Socks by Cookie A. from the Winter 2006 knitty.com
Yarn: Tess' Designer Yarns Super Sock and Baby
Needles: Addi 2's for the calf/ankle, switching down to 1's midway through the heel flap for the foot
Started: ~ May 12, 2007
Finished: June 5, 2007
I love these socks! And I finished them in time to pose with the puffins in Scotland. Great pattern - simple but addictive lace. What can I say? They were the perfect antidote to the sad tale of my Pomatomus socks - quick (if I hadn't had a 2-week work trip in there they would have been much quicker!), easy and fun.
I definitely see more monkeys in my future!
What a great shot! Love the puffins, and the Monkeys look great.

Puffins are fun aren't they? Neat that they would let you get that close.
