The only thing better than knitting socks...

Is receiving hand-knit socks from a friend.

These lovely ones came in the mail from my pal Laura who unfortunately for her (but fortunately for me) made them too big for herself.

They fit me perfectly and sport a nifty stitch pattern (and my favourite garter stitch heels and toes).  I believe they were a Socks that Rock sock of the month club pattern.

Thanks Laura!  They're a great pick-me up and with the weather continuing to be cold, my warm feet thank you too.

Very cute socks. For some reason, knitting socks intimidates me so I haven't tried to make any yet. Those are lovely though, and might just inspire me to try to make some myself.
