With thick enough yarn slipper socks work up seriously fast and are really easy so I agreed. And lord knows I’m no stranger to freezing feet at night. Heh. I sleep with socks on all year.
She left me a message while I was on vacation to let me know she’d left me some patterns and yarn in the church office with my name on it. I was kinda pleasantly surprised, as I’d planned to just buy the yarn myself. She told me not to be too shocked when I saw the yarn as there was a lot of it. She said just use whatever and returns what’s left. I was thinking in my mind, “psh, whatever. I know thick yarn looks big and all. I’m sure it’s not that much.”
I went into the office yesterday to pick up the yarn. I could not hide the look of utter shock on my face. (Then I had to laugh at myself, for actually reacting like that) Here is what I saw:

Yeah. Those spools are as big as my head. Actually, bigger. (That orange thing on the left spool is a standard pen)
Anyway I lugged the spools home and started right away last night. Finished one pair already!
You know, I'm dying to crochet socks. I have some awesome sock yarn just dying to be made into cute socks. Is it easy? Do you have a pattern you love?
