I have been slaving away making these "Globe Trotter" socks for my brother in law for Christmas. I drew his name out of the hat for secret Santa this year and thought i would make him some socks!
The pattern looks really styli for man socks but it is BORING! i really struggled with the constant seed stitch. I shoul have done what some friends suggested and cast on something else to work on when i got bored instead of torturing myself. I will do that next time!
They look great though! haha
I got to try out my spiffy new sock blockers too! A knitting night last night i was mentioning how i needed some and Sheryl whips out some plastic place mats and her blockers to trace around and voila! D.I.Y sock blockers!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some time in the future i will get the real deal but these are great for now!

You are my hero! Those are great . . . I'm scared of socks, totally scared.
Merry Christmas!
They look fantastic. Love the sock blockers as well, great idea.
I'm so impressed by anyone who has the patience and skill to knit socks. They do look great.
