Quick Knit Boot Socks

Last weekend we went walking in the woods. It was warmish and sunny but there was still a lot of snow on the ground. Miss P kept getting snow down in her boots. She was wearing thin nylon socks that did  not keep her feet warm after they got wet.

I decided that she needed some wool socks that would keep her feet warm even when wet.  She requested socks with cables.

I modified Cable Rib Sock pattern by Erica Alexander found in Favorite Socks 25 Timeless Designs from Interweave. The yarn is a hand painted yarn from Briar Rose Fibers that was left over from a baby dress/jumper that I knit for P before she was born.

Miss P enjoyed standing on the table for the photo shoot.
