    About

    Knitted these for a Christmas present for my Mum, who has cold feet at night; the merino-based Alegria yarn is so soft and cosy it's perfect for these. The pattern is a bit of a mash-up - the stitch texture is from the ringwood sock pattern, the shape is a (slightly altered) version of the slouchy socks I've done before and I added a picot cast on just for the fun of it...
    The colours remind me of a winter dawn/dusk - one of those cold, calm days when the cotton-wool clouds turn pink and lavender against a baby blue sky at sunrise & sunset

    Notes: I used the Ringwood stitch pattern, but a looser-fitting shape from another pattern for these as I wanted them to be loose-fitting & comfortable for all-night wear - the stitch looks so nice, and was so easy to work, that I want to knit the pattern as written soon
