the blue blog archives: wicked cute

When I was doing my sock updates a few weeks ago, I spotted the adorable little bonus socks that Beate made for her sockapaloooza pal with leftover yarn from the real pair. I commented on how cool they were and Beate knit and sent me a pair. What a sweetie! Thanks so much, Beate. I absolutely love them!

Now if only the sun would come out again here so I could wear them. (Seriously, there's no sun in the whole 10-day forecast! See ya in June, little flip flop socks.)

Those are so cute! Any idea of the pattern? I looked at Beate's site, and it's in German.

I have had that pattern sitting around wanting to be knit. It is free on the Regia site and is even translated to English. Get it here:

now, where is that cotton sock yarn?

Those are adorable - that's it, between the Regia Canadian colors and the new India colors, I my resistance is wearing thin. German knitters see all the best sock yarn first!

Dude! Those are so freaking cute! I must have them now.

Nice pedi!

lovely pedi - is there a mani to go with it? I am thinking these are the next car project.

You MUST be in New England! lol Can't wait for the SUN. Great little socks - I'm sure my girls will want a pair - thankfully they will be a quick knit and they look great on you :) Stay dry!

Ooh, super cute! I love that idea! There's sooo much leftover sock yarn in my stash, this is the perfect fix!

Those are sweet!

cute pedi, cute sock, got to have a pair.

Posted by: Dee at May 10, 2006 8:57 PM

did I say, I had to have a pair...

Posted by: Dee at May 10, 2006 8:59 PM

Wow, this might be my first foray into the land of sock knitting. These even I could handle!

What amazes me is how well they match! Down to the very last stitch they match. How do people do that? I get close but not THAT close.

I'm glad you like them. :)

Posted by: Beate at May 11, 2006 8:48 AM

Posted by: Iraida at May 11, 2006 5:51 PM

wow! such a cute idea. i LOVE my flip flops, and this would make wearing them soo much more fun. however, i am unable to open the pdf file, is there anyone who would be able to open them and send me the file?

Posted by: Amanda at May 11, 2006 10:36 PM

They look so sweet!

And wow your feet are so pretty! I hate feet but yours are just perfectly formed! *jealous*

Posted by: Sooz at May 11, 2006 11:06 PM

I love those little flip flop socks....never seen or heard of them before! I need to make some!

Posted by: Jeanette at May 12, 2006 9:09 AM

Wow, those are adorable! And they look really cute on you.

I should make those for my MIL's Bday in Aug. she is always wearing socks with her flip flops...it's mind bending...

Posted by: Orli at May 14, 2006 5:03 AM

The flip flop sock pattern - - I don't do German - is it translated anywhere into English??
