Socks for Dad and the TDF

Finally finished a pair of socks I promised my dad nearly 3 years to make; two to find the right color yarn and one to actually knit them up!  Pattern- Retro Rib by Evelyn A. Clark, from Favorite Socks- 25 Timeless Designs book.  Yarn- Dream in Color Everlasting Sock in Holly colorway.

 

A note about the Tour de Fleece on Ravelry this year.  To put it bluntly, someone I know has died on a motorcycle during the TDF the past two years.  It could be coincidence or something else, but I didn't feel like testing out "third time's a charm" theory.  I've done quite a few projects since my last post, but if I didn't get it on here then, it's not going to get posted now! =/
