Warm Feet in custom case
Warm Feet
2015/2016
5 pair of socks ranging from 1/2" to 1" long
Cotton Thread
All socks are hand knit with traditional knitting techniques (including a turned heal and knit in the round with four needles. I created this piece as a representation of my family (me and my four children) and our uncanny ability to lose socks no matter how many we have!
To create my knitted pieces, I design my own original patterns and then use my own hand-made knitting needles that I make from surgical stainless steel. I use fine cotton or silk thread to knit with. If there are buttons on the piece-they work. If there are pockets--they are real. Socks have turned heels, gloves have fingers so small they are too big for a grain of rice. All aspects of my work is meant to be as "real" as possible. Please feel free to email me at altheacrome@gmail.com with any further questions.
