This is the first time 
I used The Knittery’s yarn to knit a pair of socks and I must say, I really enjoyed knitting with it. However, this yarn has been discontinued. Luckily I still have a few more skeins in different colourways.
When the Monkey pattern was first published 2 years ago, lots of people raved about it 
. If you checked on Ravelry, there’s about 3464 projects for Monkey alone!! I have always been a slow starter. I’ve never knit anything pattern that has just been recently published. Nevertheless, now I know why so many loved Monkey as it is a very beautiful pattern and I really enjoyed knitting it. 
Pattern: Monkey
Yarn: 1 skein of The Knittery 4 Ply Sock: Merino (Watercolours)
Needles: 2.5 mm
At the moment, I’ve no idea which pattern to knit for my next sock. However, I’m planning on using the Knittery’s Cashmere (Old) in orange blossom colourway. Any suggestions?

very beautiful Michelle -
do they stay up? ive always wondered about this with knitted sock patterns, as i hate i when they slide down the leg.
It is a great pattern and the Watercolour is gorgeous. It is sad it has been discontinued. Great socks, I am going to make the Purl-less Monkeys next!!!
Whaa!!! They look fabulous!! Now I must ask - they are toe up, yes? Tones you were knitting on at the Knitting Party at Helen’s? What heel pattern did you use? Love the colours - and looks like they FIT!! Hurrah!! =D Can’t wait to catch up soon and see them in person! xo
They look great on your feet & the pooling is not obvious - great work!
