I can relate – use to do that a couple of years ago. Until realized there was needed more and more space (who would have thought socks need so much of it!). 🙂 Thank you

Bare feet on the right and socks above! Oh my! Are those ordinary socks that are then hand stitched? It is difficult to see the details, and thus, I cannot tell from the picture.
Thanks for reading one of my humble sonnets (even if you only popped in for a moment.)

Thank you. 🙂 Very ordinary, yet wonderfuly hand knitted. For me at least – to keep those bare feet comfy all the way through winter.
It was my pleasure to discover your sonnets. Too rich and profound to stop at just one… 😉

I humbly thank you. They are there to be read (for better or worse!)
That seem a wonderful way to augment a pair of plain white socks! My I ask if it is an ordinary Cross-stitch method or something more exotic?
LikeLike
“For better” counts in my case since I definitely enjoyed. 🙂
As far as my knowledge and experience in knitting reaches, I would say the ornaments are knitted in without any stiching. In an ordinary way.

We do have one other thing in common: Nice feet. My sweet wife claims that I could still be a foot model if I so wished (and I am perhaps 3 times your age) Doctors are amazed when they look at them! But I do not do anything unusual. Just luck of good foot genes : ) (I’m not sure I’d put them on my web site though!)

By the way, I tried viewing the picture of your socks up close, and could indeed see that they are all knitted. They seemed so well done so perfect and regular that I thought, when I first saw them that it was some kind of Latvian needle work embroidering over ordinary factory made socks. (It made me want to try that with a pair of mine, that i buy in 12 packs. From Costco. Which they may or may not have in Latvia.)

We always do – for sure.
I don’ t think I am familiar with Costco, sorry but…some nice embroidering can never do any damage, can’ t it? Just make things look more interesting.
