I am not a knitter..but these are soooo pretty. I like the granny square addition to the top…

Those socks make me want to learn to knit & crochet immediately! But I’ve sworn off taking up any more creative hobbies. I don’t need to add yarn to the mounds of fabric and other stuff. Nice work though!

Very, very lovely. Socks are the new black.

I knit and crochet. Lately I have been “looking” for projects to combine them. These socks are perfect!

What lovely colours and such a great idea to use crochet like this!

These are great. Now that my wife and I are retired in France, we have more time for hobbies. I always thought knitting and crocheting was boring but these convince me otherwise. I likely haven’t got the patience, but maybe if I show these to my wife I can pursuade her.

Hello!
Ok, you’ve inspired me to take up knitting again! I’d love to make the Interweave socks you have pictured, but I can’t seem to find the pattern at that link.
