Can someone help Marina up over there? Anyone have some smelling salts? Thanks! 😉
Back in August, I dyed Tequila Sunrise stripey yarn from some KnitPicks sock blanks that the ever-gracious Deb gifted to me. (And it’s Deb’s birthday today, so head on over and wish her a good one, eh?) After knitting the lovely and intricate (and non-stripey) Beryl Tendrils, I was in the mood for a plain, mindless toe-up sock. Enter the Tequila Sunrise Socks.
“We warned you that this was a cat crossing, Mom. Too busy to stop or worry about the safety of your sock.” -Chaos
“Yeah! What the big kitty said!” -Mayhem
“Wait, these look like they might be stripey socks…” -Mayhem
“Hmm… and they match my favorite mouse, too. Promising.” -Mayhem
Those are very pretty! And look quite lovely with the black kitty toes!
Yay! The “old” Chris has returned 😉 Those colours are wonderful & Spring-like.
May’s feeties look so dainty and delicate next to the pink mouse.
I know! Poor Marina! Imagine what’ll happen when Carrie K. finishes Mary Tudor!
I love your springy socks. I’d need them on an icky day like today…
Very pretty indeed! I’m usually not one for orange, but when mixed with pink, it just seems like a much nicer color. I have two pairs I’ve made with orange and pink together.
Love the sock. Cheery colors for dark gloomy January.
Lovely colors! Those are going to be some great socks!
I love these colors, they are some of my favorites. Well done! Is May possibly measuring her foot for a pair or two, too?
Looks good so far! 🙂
Seconding Brigitte on Mayhem’s dainty feet.
After getting up off the floor and rubbing my forehaed, that is.
Nice (stripey) socks.
A great color combo for January projects. Nice the kitties could keep their toys color coordinated with your socks.
Those look like a lot of fun! I’m finding I love those colors more than I used to!
Nice colors!
Wow, that really goes look like a tequila sunrise. Maybe you should put a little red pompom at the top to represent the cherry. 🙂
Those are some pretty flashy colors for you – I like them! I bet they’ll keep feet extra warm too.
Oh those are turning out so cute. Plus, I forgot all about them. And, thanks for the shout-out!!!
Chris- You can pretend you’re in Mexico when you wear the socks.
Ole.
Pretty socks! I want better kitty pictures.
great colors, but seriously you live in Minny, stop being so lazy and sew a whole sock will ya? 😉
Pink. Stripey. May’s going to steal those when they’re done.
Gorgeous colors! I think Mayhem is scheming how to make those socks hers and hers alone. She’d probably prefer them lying wet in the bathroom sink.
Wow, this really IS a second knitting post in one week. I had to check to make sure you weren’t bedridden or something. 🙂 The TS yarn knitted up beautifully into some nice stripes.
Sooo pretty! I know it’s SoC because I see a cat next to the knitting!
They do go really well with her mouse.
Maybe you have enough yarn left over to knit a matching catnip sock?
Very pretty!
Oh.
My.
God.
I LOVE THEM!
Cute socks 🙂
Oh, nice socks, and they’re in May’s colors! They brighten up those dark winter days.
Oooh the colorway reminds me of rainbow sherbet LOL Great lookin’ socks!
All this knitting … who knew??
They look great, especially set off against all that black.
Those are great colors, and I love the name. I’ve been looking at that knitpics sock blank, and remembering that you did this… it seems like a lot of work, was it fun and worth it?
Looks like fun! And I love the mousie… looks very similar to one I put in the mail a while ago…
Such a striking color next to a black kitty too!
Happy New Year. I can’t believe so many knitting posts. Love the color
Awesome colours! Especially good for this time of year, I’m thinking.
LOVE the color of those socks.
Love the socks! Just the right spot of color that January requires 🙂
Those colors are awesome; just what you need in the dead of winter!
I LOVE THOSE COLORS! Your sock drawer had better watch out, I see a theif in its future……good thing I live far away.
Those socks are perfect for this gray time of year. So cheery! And will look terrific on May. 🙂
LOVE the pink and orange yarn. Yummy!
Those are turning out nicely!
