Perhaps only second to the Red Bark Monkey socks, these monkeys may be the most photographed pair of socks to be featured here prior to being finished. I loved knitting these socks! The color brought such warmth to my day and my hands hate to say good-bye to them, but it's now time for my feet to have a chance at them.
I leave you with these last few images to complete the series of photos that comprise Hollyday Monkey socks.

I love the hollyday color way and your monkey socks. I was surfing around looking for what others used hollyday on. Below is a link to my hollyday socks.
