These will come in handy for soccer season too when the weather gets really cold, I think I can probably wear them with my boots. The yarn I used was Dream in Color Groovy and I think the colorway (Bayou) is beautiful. The pattern was also from Dream in Color as part of their sock club. It was my first purchase from The Dizzy Sheep. Have you checked out The Dizzy Sheep yet? They have daily specials that change at midnight everyday. It's been kind of fun to follow the deals... I hate to admit it but I find myself a little addicted to checking out the special every night since I'm always up. Anyway, as you can tell, they knit up really quick with the bulky yarn. I loved the yarn but didn't exactly love the pattern. There were some mistakes but I had to adjust for using magic loop anyway so it wasn't really an issue with me. For a beginning sock knitter it might be a little more frustrating. All in all though, if your looking for a quick knit for a last minute gift, these are perfect! My feet will be nice and toasty warm this winter and, from what everyone has been saying, it looks like I will need it!!
