Now that the second one is also blocked (I have only one sock blocker in this size) I can finally make their state portrait! The Beeautiful Socks by Stone Knits, with mohair wings, who even thinks of that, I love them so much and am glad they’re going to my most knitworthy family member.

Green socks with black-and-yellow striped cuffs and toes, and bumble bees with soft grey wings and round bumble bee bums. 

To the side all the ends I wove in and snipped off, a pile as big as a sock heel, feels like as big as the moon.
