I started these socks from Opal Petticoat quite a while ago. I was making them for Michelle, my son's girlfriend at the time, but she has disappeared from my life and so I didn't finish them. Not too long ago, I took them to my Saturday knitting group to work on them, told this story and my lovely friend Pat offered to buy them for her daughter if I didn't have a plan for them. Pat bought them and, to my delight, kept them for herself.

Michelle, if you're reading this, I miss you.
