Eye Candy Friday: Sockapalooza edition
Sockapalooza has concluded, and I really lucked out this time around!
Thank you, wonderful pal Krista from the Naked Sheep blog! I could not imagine anything more perfect: a wonderful fit, my favorite sherbert-y colors, plus a yarn and pattern I've been meaning to try!
See how nice?!?
And the Scala socks I knit for my pal? They have landed, and my pal from the Cheesehead with Sticks blog loved them. Wheww!
I call this one a success all the way around ;). I hope your feet are dancing in pretty socks this weekend, too!

Great looking socks! I loooooooove Sockapalooza.
Wow, I might be a little intimidated if I saw your name show up as my downstream pal... but Krista did a great job.
They look lovely on your feet and it's so exciting to see them on your blog! Thanks for being such a great pal to knit for!
Charades seriously look good in every yarn I've seen. I've never done Sockapalooza, but with all the great posts I've been seeing this week, I'm seriously considering starting!
Congrats on the new socks! I received my Sockapalooza4 socks today and now anxiously watch to see that the socks I knit arrive where they ought.
What a yummy combination! They look so cheerful and comfy!
Those are so pretty! It sounds like you had a good trade!
It's so good to read about a successful trade. Both you and your giftee are happy gals! It looks like your giftor really paid attention to what you like and make a great pair of socks for you. Score!
Oooh, so nice. Now it is all done for you, I'm still waiting for the socks I knitted to arrive. Fingers crossed!
Those are great socks. I'm stilling waiting for some socks from my pal. The ones I sent out arrived though.
Kathy,
Wonderful socks! Perfect fit.. which I'm discovering ain't that easy to do.
Saw the whole discussion on Ravelry about shortened feeds, etc. Wanted to say that while I read most blog directly through BlogLines, yours is one that I always choose to click through and read here. I appreciate your design, your photos and best of all your thoughtful words. (but I do like the larger font size in BlogLines because these old eyes don't do small font size well anymore).
I monitor over 600 feeds, checking about 250 daily and the others atleast once a week. This is one of 50 blogs that I always choose to click through on.
Ooh, beautiful socks! I love the colors! I love getting hand knit socks from someone other than myself. You lucky girl!
OOooh, pretty socks! I love the color and the fact that they are shorter. It's nice to have a variety style in handmade socks.
The socks are great! The color of socks is beautiful. I like it very much!

I remember last year's sock madness. So glad things worked out well this time around, Kathy!
Great socks, I might just have to join the next sockapalooza swap.
Pretty! The charade pattern gets more tempting every time I see it worked up. Is the tofutsie yarn have any elastic content?
Those are very nice and look like they have the perfect fit!
Mine aren't here yet and the meilman came already by today. Well, maybe tomorrow.

I'm so glad your pal came through for you = I remember last year too!
Those socks are great! The colors work very well with the pattern. How did you like working with the Tofutsies?
They look good enough to eat!
