Clouds and drops go well together, don’t they? While they may not be your best friends when they’re in the sky (or falling on us), I’m pretty sure you’ll love wrapping them around your feet. I’ve called this pattern Soaked to the Skin and it’s available for free on the Knotions website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’ve never been so wet as I was on a trip to Northern Ireland a few years ago. Within minutes, the rain had almost drowned us, and I’m only slightly exaggerating! All the clothes I was wearing were ruined and wet (even my underwear), and the rain even managed to reach the inside of my suitcase! Honestly, we were so miserable that we laughed a lot about it, and it’s now one of my best memories of my trip there.<\/p>\n

From clouds to rivers to rain, I find the water cycle fascinating. November is open synonymous with heavy fog and rainy days where I live. This year in particular. Although I much prefer snow, I’ve recently come to really appreciate rainy and overcast days. Seeing the rain zones move from a distance reminds me very much of a natural play. There’s nothing better than a cup of hot tea and a knitted sweater to enjoy the spectacle of natural events unfolding outside.<\/p>\n

Soaked to the Skin socks are knitted from rib to toe. Their lace pattern, reminiscent of clouds and air currents on the leg, evolves into drops made with cross-mesh on the top of the foot. The heel is reinforced and the toes rounded.<\/p>\n

For once, it wasn’t me who knitted the pattern you see in the photos here. If you can see them today, it’s thanks to Andi Gallegos<\/a> who knitted them and Knotions who made it possible. I’m very happy to have had a model in this special sock edition. So many pretty patterns! Grab your 2.5 mm needles (US #1), the pattern and off you go. If you’re on Ravelry, don’t forget to link your project pages to the pattern page, it’s the best way for me to see your creations. I can’t wait to see all your socks!<\/p>\n
