@KnitsWithHorses I had a lot of car time.
LOL, I think you get points for seeing it as God’s garden!
Finished pair!
These are such happy looking socks, wearing them will be a joy.
Bonus entry - my socks in my garden! This is part of my perennial garden on the slope off our patio. It was destroyed last year when we put in a pool so we had to replant this year. The rocks in front are my funky Sempervivum garden. I had to dig out all my little Sempervivums before the destruction last year and I’m still working on getting it back in shape. If you look into the distance, you can see an arbor. That is the entrance to my vegetable garden. The bottom pictures are my veggie garden.
Very impressive. I really like the arbor and no wonder you’re out harvesting all the time!
Your garden is extraordinary!
Love the socks and your garden is impressive! It can’t be easy dealing with a slope.
@Kathy7661 - You’re right - slopes are hard. Weeding is the worst. Typically, I sit on a stool to weed. It is really hard to sit - and get up! - on a slope.
Pattern:
Twisted Basket Weave from Socks 2 At a Time

Very nice!
Thank you guys! Yes, these are my tootsie spoilers. More planned in these colors, but with the colors moved around.
I like that little twist in there! Adds just a bit of spice.
Beautiful socks!
@ Rose the Rebel it is actually a pattern by the Teton Knitting Company.
