Jim's 'Bubble Wrap' sox

These sox were knit with Wool Craft Superwash Sock yarn...leftover from knitting the 'Jitterbug' sox motif.
I used #1 needles and# 0's for the foot.
The pattern on the leg is from the "365 Knitting Stitches a Year Perpetual Calendar" converted to knit in the round!!!
It sort of looks like bubble wrap.
I did a tubular cast on and 3st garter edge on the heel flap.
The sox feel very dense and I hope they wear (Jim) well.
Sigh...another obligation fulfilled....whew!!!
Happy knitting.
Mags

I hope they fit because I wasn't sure about his size.
