Sockapalooza sock update

So here is the sock I’m knitting for my sockapalooza pal hanging out with our fish tank. It’s the monkey socks and it seems like everyone is knitting a pair — the new jaywalkers. I have to admit I jumped on the bandwagon, but I’ve been oogling this pattern before I could even [...]

They grow up like weeds, the pretty ones…
