So, you want to know who I am cheating on my Yarn Pirate Icicle socks with, hmm?
Meet Mandy:
Spunky Eclectic Super DK sock in 'Mandy,' to be exact.
You have to love socks that knit up so fast you are past the gusset in less than 2 days. I wish all sock knitting was like that. I love the Icicle socks, but knitting 78 stitches on size 1s takes so much longer than 56 stitches on size 3s. I get the feeling that this will be a quick and dirty affair, and then the Icicle socks will be back in my arms (okay - my hands) again.

Nice socks Jo, did you just name them Mandy or is that the name of the pattern/ or wool?Jaimes
LOL - The colourway is actually called Mandy. I think the dyer had a line all named after songs - and this one was 'Mandy' by Barry Manilow.
Quick and dirty...hehehe! Gorgeous socks! I hear you on the quick knits!
LOVE the socks. Nice pinks :0)
Berrylicious.
You know I used to go to school with lots of girls named Mandy. Now I don't know a soul with that name? What happened to them all? Were they turned into sock yarn? Or did they grow up and start going by "Amanda?"
Oh Mandy....hehe..I sang, or should I say attempted to sing it for a contest one year....needless to say, I didn't win! Pretty colorway and yes..I'm using 1's and wishing for 3's!
So it came and it gave without taking (long to make) hehehe
You cheater, you!
Not to be crude or anything, but...
Hubba hubba!
