Rockin' Robin
He rocks in the tree-top all a day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and a-singin' the song
All the little birds on J-Bird St.
Love to hear the robin goin' tweet tweet tweet

I just found you and love your site. I totally get the Bob Dylan thing and your red socks are a shelter from the storm. I just linked you up.

Totally love them. How does the bamboo feel? I haven't bought any yet and am so curious.

They came out wonderfully well! Bright and cheerful - just perfect for spring when you need a cheering up from the new snowstorm.

I've got robins and they're very confused with all this snow. Awesome socks! Can't wait for your sock yarns to go on sale! I love the stripes

Very pretty. I sure hope those red-red-robins come bop-bop-bopping along very soon.

Pretty!! I'll bet spring (and a robin or two) is just around the corner!

Those look very soft and comfy! I'd love to know how you dyed to get the stripes (hint, hint!).
