The pink socks are Jeanie Townsend's Spring Twists socks. This particular pattern is a free pattern - you have to belong to the Townsend Sock KAL Group - but this lady is tremendously talented and writes great patterns. Her purchased patterns are well worth the investment. I used Needful Yarns Australian Merino for these socks. I'd link to them but they appear to be offline right now... I only had 2 balls, so I ended up making the leg a little shorter so that I could have toes in my socks. If you use the same yarn - get yourself 3 balls... You can see another pair of Jeanie socks that I knit here. Finally, we have Spilly Jane's Naive Socks (This Must Be the Socks) in Noro Kureyon. The pattern is available on Ravelry. Check out her other patterns, too. Another talented lady. These socks became well travelled during the WWKIP Scavenger Hunt, although I'm still a little worried about their unpredictability given their attack on the Playmobil pirate ship crew...
At least they're pretty!

darn end weaving.
Looks good though!!
I really wish our Zukes were coming out our ears. This year the plants are hardly producing. Nice Socks! Your feet will be pretty and warm.
bumper crop all round then !!
love all the socks, am a bit like you with weaving ends!!
great knitting...
this is when i get jealous of all the gardeners. .. .i willingly take all zucchini, cucumber and tomato donations :)
nice socks! you've been very productive!
You're definitely on a "sock roll"! All are absolutely fabulous! Have you thought of baking lots of zucchini cakes and freezing them for later use, or pickled zucchini might be good as well. I've also heard of people donating extra produce to local food banks or soup kitchens.
Love your socks! You have been busy! Wish I lived close enough to help with the extra veg!
Love your Naive Socks!!!
Those are some pretty socks, and great zukes! I, too would take any and all gardeners' produce donatons. :-)
p.s...your prize should get to you..oh...soon?
