These are the UuuuHu! vottemønster pattern by Stinene. They are the softest, squishiest things I've ever made. The background yarn is Adriafil Genziana 100% Merino gorgeousness. The owl pattern is String Theory Caper Sock 80% Merino and 10% Cashmere, which I previously wasn't thrilled about (due to cost vs. number of breaks) but love it in these little gems.

These socks are made with Tofutsies yarn and the Paton's Lace Ruffle Cuff sock pattern. I made both at the same time on US 2 / 2.75 mm circular needles. They have Welsh heels and star toes of 4 points. I like how the colours turned out in pools and stripes. Please visit my etsy shop! www.etsy.com/shop/Beatrixknits
