Here are my latest socks, bright and Christmasy ones to stomp the town in my boots. They will go excellent with my Lime Green LLBean Down Vest that I wear in the our rainy winter weather. I am going to give them a try today as we are venturing out to Lucy Neatby's Christmas Open House. I have never met her, " A Knitting Guro or Celebrity", and she only just lives down the road from us. I wear a nice bright green long-sleeved Tshirt and my poinsettia scarf and give the whole outfit a test run and this is what I plan to wear to our December market also, later in December. I can honestly say that no socks are too bright for me as long as I have something in my closet to go with them. So far that appears not to have been a problem :-) MrB has done some cranking for me of late, and I appreciate his dedication to my 2 pairs of Alpaca socks, and now these, as this yarn was given to me at the PE Crank-in in Ontario, in October from a friend I met there, EMc. I think I may have one more pair coming my way, from yarn we bought in Ontario. I have to test them out, you know and I am will be a good model too!
