Toe Socks

Toe Socks
Toe Socks

All I need to do now is sew the elastic on. Oh... and come up with a saying for each pair. I want to wrap each pair individually in tissue paper, and tie a bit of card stock with an appropriate saying to each. For example, for (e), I'm thinking of using "every cloud has a silver lining."

I don't have sayings for all of them yet... I was wondering if you have any ideas? I've labelled each with a scrabble tile to help. Thanks!

    I love your toe socks, such wonderful colors. I've been wanting to try and make toe socks; where did you get your pattern?

    What kind of sayings do you want to include with each pair? Something descriptive about the sock? Love your blog :O)

    Thanks! Yes, I want to make the saying descriptive. So (e), which reminds me of a rainbow after a storm, has "every cloud has a silver lining".

    The toe socks are simply toe-up socks that I've stopped after 3-4 inches. I'll be sewing elastic loops that go around the heel to hold the socks on. There's a link to the toe-up pattern I use in my sidebar.

    F should be something like, "It's a jungle out there."

    The toe socks are so neat. I love them. Your grandmother is going to have a hard time deciding which ones to wear first.

    When I look at D, the first thing that pops into my head is flames/fire. Maybe, "Outta the frying pan and into the fire"

    I agree about F, camouflage/woods comes to mind :O)

    Ok, they're more song titles and puns but how about...

    C or F - It ain't easy being green.

    L - You are the sunshine of my life.

    K - I love you berry berry much
