The socks are beautiful, but the story that goes along with them is even better. I love that you finished what your grandmother had started. I’m sure that your dad will love them.

What a great idea to finish the socks. I would like that they are subtly different because you’ll always be able to tell who knit what.

Your camping story has me longing for the banks of the Wabash!

Oh, I’m sure he’ll wear them if he likes how they fit. The two of us are not terribly sentimental. Mom says it’s because we’re German.

Congratulations on another beautiful knit that will have forever memories. the only problem…will your father actually wear the socks? Hopefully he is not as sentimental as me or my Mom. I just shared your post with her too & it meant a lot to both of us. To know that generational gifts still carry such meaning…we have a household full of them too!
