Back in 2010, I started knitting socks. I never really got the big deal with sock knitting and wasn’t a huge fan of walking on my knitting, but I ran across a little book called Silk Road Socks and quickly became an addict.

Over the years, I’ve made a few socks. Here are some of the Hunter Hammersen socks I’ve knit for you to peruse during this lovely month of Socktober.

Happy Socktober, everyone!!!
Ps. I won free Hunter patterns on Jessica’s Blog, so I want to give her a shout out!

Went over to the neighbor’s place to borrow their gorgeous wild daisy field for my photo shoot on Easter evening. Thanks, Peg!


These are my Set Fire to the Rain socks that have finally become a pair. The pattern is Chamfer by Hunter Hammersen. This was not my favorite pattern to knit since I couldn’t seem to memorize it, however, I’ll probably knit them again at some point since I think they look wicked cool on! Other people seem to have memorized the pattern just fine, so I’m sure it’s just me….and I’m certainly not going to let it stop me from making another pair cause the more I look at these, the more I love them…..(sound of me digging through stash to see what color I want to do next).

I like the feel of Handmaiden Fine Yarn Casbah Sock yarn and the color, Saltspray. If you have a chance, I recommend trying Casbah out.

The one below might be my favorite picture since I just decided to lay back for a bit and relax and enjoy the daisies. Taking pictures of your own feet is a workout, people.

I hope everyone had a beautiful Easter!
