Cranky Socks

I saw an Instagram post by Knitterly Things for a sock yarn of the month club available for the next three months. I've never participated in a sock yarn club and I have a great pair of socks made with Knittrely Things yarn that I love. Sounded perfect. I signed up and paid for the three months. 

I signed up to get a coordinating little hank for heels and toes. Aren't these colors delightful?

I wound my yarn into cakes, set up my machine and got cranking.

In no time I had an almost finished pair of socks. A couple of episodes of Death in Paradise later and they were finished. 

As the weather warms I may not have an occasion to wear these but they will be perfect when I do.
