Apologies for the crinkly right off the needles mess. These are a gift and don't fit me, and I don't own sock blockers (yet).
Vanilla Socks but I made the cuff go straight into the heel because the recipient likes ankle socks.

Who needs sock blockers anyway when they're going on feet? Pah!
I hope your giftee knows how lucky they are to know someone who can just magic socks into existence π
Good point! They're for my husband and he is very proud.
He had me take him to our LYS to learn about my hobbies so that he has a better idea for gifts.
@thegiddystitcher Sock blockers are pretty much unnecessary unless you do some kind of lacy thing that you want to have show up in photos! (Also weird that whoever you were responding to doesnβt show up in this thread but maybe itβs a lemmy thing?)
Ah sometimes the Mastodon side of a convo gets confused and just leaves off the OP. But look, here's the socks we're talking about! https://sh.itjust.works/post/9091398
@thegiddystitcher I see that my comment appeared like magic!!! Also December is sock month OMG
