As you already know the I Heart Bees pattern is a taster from my new book which will be ready for next year, but i Figured you may like to know a little bit more about the sock.

Title - I heart bees

The title came from me watching I heart huckabees a few months ago and the idea of making a bee themed sock got me excited with inspiration to design one.

The gauge is
9 stitches and 13 rows = 1 inch in Stockinette
I took the gauge from the bottom of the sock

The yarn -Laughing Yaffle sock, fingering weight 4ply yarn,  460yds in 100g skein

Needle size- 2.75mm or US 2

The sock is a top down sock made to fit a womens size 6, 5 and 4 foot.

And i am currently working out the extra sizes which are size 7, 8 and 9

I hope this info will help you make a choice about my fab new sock pattern

I’m so pleased with my new sock pattern, i hadn’t even had it on ravelry a day and somebody purchased it :) . I was well happy my first pattern sale. I was jumping for joy apart from messaging my mum and my partners mum and not getting a call from either which was a bit disappointing as i wanted to be excited when i told them but oh well!! it looks like i have to put my giddiness on hold. I’m now working on my mittens for the book and i then I’m going to get on with the second i heart bees sock so i actually have a pair for photographing the book and so i can actually wear them :)
