Quadra Island is beautiful. Would love to visit the lighthouse. What a lovely place for a yarn shop.

The socks are gorgeous and the colorway reflects the island.

Those socks are wonderful, your pal will be lucky to receive them! :) Love that pattern, it's a nice and easy change from regular ribbed socks. Note to self, must try it out someday. ;)

Those are beautiful! Lucky pal. There is a Socks That Rock colorway that is very similar to that. In fact, when I opened up your blog I thought, "What is she doing with my socks?" because I used a similar design too. I haven't knit with Lorna's Laces yet, but I have some 0 I think that my be my next sock project.
