These are for my son's 14th Birthday which was 1st May LOL! He wanted Villa socks & this is as close as I could find in my tiny stash of sock yarn!
I'm still on the trail of a 22" teal zip. An ebay seller in china claims to have all colours. Maybe if he emails me back, we can do business. He only wants £1.00 postage for any amount, it's just getting contact off him that's proving difficult! I need to finish that jacket :(
I popped back into town on Saturday, hoping to nab some more Jaeger Aqua, but most of it was gone & I only managed to get 7 balls & 2 more balls of Regia Stretch. Funny, 'cos there's never anyone in the wool dept when I go in, maybe the staff swiped it LOL!
Here are the completed socks:
I hate it when some of the colours are different lengths, just look at that annoying red bit on the toe, it did that on purpose, I'm sure. It's bugging me, if they were mine I'd have to change that, but he's gone to school in them, so they must be OK for him :)
Off to dive in to the sock stash, I need to make some more!!!

I like the sock colour! Keep going with it. :)
Nice sock! Good luck with the zip - I'll see what's around here next time I'm stash shopping. Which is bound to be weeks away, of course..
Villa! VILLA!!!!!!! I need a lie down ;)! My dad was a lifelong Villa supporter as it happens.
It looks a lovely sock so far Jo.
great socks, I'm sure your DS will love them to bits!!
