Pie and Waffles

Ok, maybe not real pie and waffles but the socks I've been working on both have foodie names and I thought that was kind of funny. First off, the Sweetie Pie Socks which were just published on the Sockathon Yahoo Group:






The pattern is free but you have to be a member of the Yahoo group to access it, it's free to join so check it out! I used 2 skeins of Panda Cotton in Red Lacquer and US size 1.5 (2.5mm) needles.

The other socks I've been working on are a pair of Blueberry Waffle socks by Sandy Turner:






I'm using Berroco's Comfort DK in a gorgeous purple and it's my first time knitting socks on such thick yarn with big needles (US size 5). I'm done with the first one and I love it, so soft and squishy! But these are going to be for my mom for Christmas so I can't get too attached to them!
