A Bee In The Bonnet

knitting tea party

A top-down photograph of a pair of gray-green socks with cable and seed stitch panels down the front and back. One sock still needs its toe grafted together. To the left of the socks is a canister of Tea Forte's Apricot Amaretto tea. It's a black canister with a tan label that has apricot-colored embellishments. A little tea is spilled across the counter to show its texture. To the right of the socks is a white teacup and saucer. The cup is full of Apricot Amaretto tea with milk. Small balls of snowball viburnum are scattered about the image.

An ornate, antique teacup with pink flowers painted on it sits on a matching coaster. It's full of one of my favorite teas, Harney & Sons' Vanilla Comoro. In the background is a mitered square blanket made of lots of pastel yarns and a vase full of pink and white hyacinths and baby's breath.

I’m kind of obsessed with these cute socks. They’r I’m kind of obsessed with these cute socks. They’re just lacy enough to be interesting, but not so complicated that they’ll make you want to rip your hair out with frustration. Testers reported that the pattern was pretty easy to memorize, too. Have you cast on a pair of the Frontispiece Socks yet?

The knitting pattern for the Frontispiece Socks is The knitting pattern for the Frontispiece Socks is now available! You can get it on its own or as part of the Golden Honey Sock Club. Like all my sock patterns, this one is graded to five sizes so you’re sure to find one that fits you.

This year, the Golden Honey Sock Club patterns are all named for specific parts of physical books that you might not have even known had names. The frontispiece in a book is a richly decorated page directly opposite from the title page, and it can include all sorts of elaborate illustrations and decorations. 

Do you have a special book with a frontispiece you are especially fond of?

P.S. - The yarn is @malabrigoyarn Ultimate Sock, which is such a good yarn. I bought mine at the last minute from a local fabric shop when a different yarn I ordered online turned out to be just not quite the right color.
I may be a creature of habit, but I’m not above an I may be a creature of habit, but I’m not above an experiment here and there!
