A month or so ago, I bought this beautiful sock yarn on Etsy. I have been hoarding and loving it ever since, trying to come up with the perfect item to make with it. I finally decided to make my first pair of ankle socks for me, on sock yarn. Since it was my 50th birthday last wednesday, I decided these will be my birthday present to myself, thus I call them "Birthday Sox" :)
The finished product:
Previously to these I made my first ever pair of socks for my husband. They were supposed to be for me, but they came out a little big, so he got them instead. I learned my skills on these, and yes there are a few mistakes, but he loves them just the same. I am quite happy with how they came out. :)
