Notes

I didn’t knit them - bought for 99 cents at a thrift store! I know, hand-knit wool socks, New Ones, for 99 cents!! Found two pairs.

Anyway, don’t like the colors in the taller ones, so considering over-dying them with hot pink. Somewhere I read that hot pink yields good results over any color.

DH performed computer wizardry and gave me a sneak peak at the possible results - a pretty pink.

February 2012 - Used Wilton ‘Rose’ icing color. Love my Happy Hot Pink Socks!!

You can read more about the dyeing process here.

Jan. 3013 - Finally identified the yarn! So surprised to see “my socks” in the Thinking Out Loud blog. lol.
