fly fishing socks






These socks are knitted for a friend of mine who will be a fly fishing guide in Alaska this summer. Yarn is from a friend who raised the sheep, and did the whole process of creating the yarn herself. Yarn has no dye. I added wooly nylon from heel all the way to the toe. These socks are as natural and local as possible.
I hope he will enjoy them and I hope the socks will pass Alaska wilderness test.

  2. I am waitng for my friend to email and send picture from Alaska's wilderness to show off the socks. The word I got is that the internet connection is very sporadic.
    Thanks for you nice comment.
    Cheers
