2007-02: Mineshaft Socks
Mineshaft socks .
Yarn: 2+ hanks Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in Mineshaft
Needles: Addi Turbo circular US1.5/2.5mm;
Pattern: 88st cuff; tubular cast-on; alternating rounds of *ktbl, k1, ktbl, p1* and *k3, p1*; fits men's size 15
Finally, a photo that shows Mineshaft colorway. These are the first SO socks that I've made with a heel flap and gusset. He put them on for the photo shoot and didn't want to take them off. Always a good sign.

That looks like the perfect sock recipe for your SO. I'd like to send my condolences, though, that he has size 15 feet. Yikes! :)

Those look great. Nice "manly" colors (manly yes, but I like it too!) Sorry, I am regressing.
But size 15 feet?! Yikes! Those are almost an Olympic knitting project!
