![The Irish have a phrase anamchara which means soul friend. I’d like to wish the happiest of birthdays to a soul friend.
I appreciate her support of my writing journey and how she’s always game to chat about my shifter romances.
I also love that she never seems to get enough of me and that feeling is mutual.
She sings, dances, hikes, makes balloon animals, takes brilliant photos, and writes poetry. I admire the way she parents. And yes, she can knit.
Perhaps more than anything, I treasure the laughs we’ve shared.
@marz1pan , you had me at hello! Happy Birthday!!!

I’ve been jonesing to finish these socks since Hunter Hammersen wrote “something may go swooping wildly about on the foot” in early December. There’s just something about a plain sock that isn’t really plain at all that appeals to me. And here they are. (right before they went in the mail to their photo shoot)
I liked the yarn quite a bit. It feels amazing and has nice stitch definition. I’ll be using Caper sock again, but I think I’ll go with a semi-solid. Black Tulip (purple), Dark & Stormy (ocean blue), or Carina (gray) or… maybe I’ll go full on crazy and give Alexandrite a whirl.
Yarn: String Theory – Caper Sock
Colorway: Beach Plum

It's a bird, no, it's a plane, no, it's socks and a plane!

Thanks so much. I felt lucky to test knit them. The pattern is addictive!

Thank you! Their true color was a little hard to capture. I think I got close. :)
Beautiful color…love them!
But I gotta say, those poses are the best…too great!
I love that you appreciate my Finished Sock Photo yoga pose.
oh man, another sock pattern I must queue! Love your socks.
Thanks so much. I can’t believe I used to think I’d never knit socks. It’s hilarious to me now. Silly me!
