Socks for Dad

My poor dad has not received any handmade gifts, so I decided to make him a pair of Hunter Socks for Christmas, like I made my brother last year.


I am using the same brand of yarn, Lamb's Pride Superwash, in a lovely colorway called Sandy Beach. It is very slightly heathered and as the cuff of the sock grew longer I saw where it got it's name.

For my brother's socks I did a 2X2 rib and I decided to change it up for Dad, so he is getting a 3X1 rib instead, it looks nice.

These socks came out soft and warm and I hope my dad enjoys them on snowy winter days!
