So
my best friends birthday was coming up in may and she had told me
that she wanted some cozy socks like I had made for her son´s
birthday in january.
His
socks were based on a pattern called tv socks that are a knit pattern
which has been very popular in Iceland since television got here in
the sixties.
Unfortunately
the pattern is only in Icelandic.
So
when it came to my friends socks I was running late her birthday was
almost here so I found socks that were very easy and I liked the
look of them.
Here
is the pattern
I
decided to make the cuff longer then in the pattern
I
used aran weight yarn, the one that come is the huge skein.
I
really liked the pattern, I find some crochet pattern way to
complicated with weird vocabulary.
I
also finally learned to make a front post back post ribbing and I
really like it. I don´t think I will be doing the other kind of
crochet ribbing again. I always found it annoying to make the
ribbing and trying to fit it to a garment.
My
friend really liked them
