socktober

alas, socktober has come and gone! the surprising news is that i actually knit socks for once! i always have the best of intentions but then life gets in the way (or a shawl, sweater, hat, etc.). 


this year, i made the commitment - socks were a priority (its not like i don't have just a tad bit of sock yarn). i didn't want to knit just any socks as i have a drawer full, i wanted special socks. special as in specialty socks - socks with a purpose!


as a yoga devotee with constantly cold feet, i found my mission - yoga socks! so without further ado, here they are:
yoga #1 and #2. easy peasy - no toes and no heels - and they fit the bill perfectly - my feet stay warm and i can still stick to my mat!the best part - the amount of yarn required was minimal so i was able to use leftovers from previous projects, like these:




win, win, win! that's what i'm talkin' about!!
