Meredith's Monkey Socks
Look at these socks I knit.
Deets:
Brown Sheep's Wildfoote Luxury Sock Yarn in Sonatina
Size 2 5" bamboo needles
Cookie A.'s Monkey from the Winter '06 issue of Knitty
Women's size 9
The sock looks a little floppy on my foot because I'm a size 6.5 and Meredith wears a 9. The pattern was incredibly easy to memorize and the yarn was soft and stretchy, if a little loosely plied. The heel flap is much longer than other socks I've knit and that translates into a sock that clings to a higher instep. Also, I somehow managed to knit these suckers in 2 1/2 weeks.
