Garter Rib Socks

These are my first socks for the KAL, and my second pair of socks ever. I used Cider Moon's Glacier weight yarn in Banana Cabana.

I had so much fun knitting these, and my kids love them so much, that they promptly put in orders for pairs.

These could be very elegant in a solid color sock yarn. I'm a firm believer in knitted socks being fun, though! At least for now.

Very cute! What a lively color. I also think socks are great for trying out all sorts of color. :)

I'm knitting these in a very dark grey, almost black, for my dad. Amazing how a change of colour can make them look so different - I had to go and look them up in the book to make sure I was knitting the same socks!
They look great, very summery and cheery.

I love the color! So much so, I went to Cider Moon and purchased 5 skiens of yarn.. I will be sock knitting all summer!! I can't wait for them to get here!! thanks for telling us where to get the yarn. I didn't get the banana but found 5 other lively beautiful color combinations that I couldn't live without. I agree- socks are the best place to go crazy with color!
