Big Pink Socks
A while back my friend Monica was talking about how she had a bunch of shawlettes she didn't wear. She has quite a few, and these were just not quite what she wanted for various reasons. One of them was a lovely Akimbo in colors I quite liked:

(That's her picture.)
So we arranged a little trade. She would give me her lovely shawlette, and I would knit her some socks. Like most people I know, Monica has bigger feet than I do, but not like most people she wears a size 12. She's tall, it makes sense. But it meant that I was knitting probably my biggest pair of socks ever.
The socks went with me on many outings and adventures.

They went on a cupcake and coffee date with a friend, and on another coffee and knitting date with some other friends where we were all knitting pink things!

They went to Stitch & Pitch!

They went to the Skacel party, which was really awesome, and Monica and I took a picture of us being Addi needles with the socks:

And then, finally, they were done!
