Oh Dear

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of Knitting a beautiful pair of socks in Artesano Humming Bird. It took me quite a while to finish the pair and I was really please with the finished result.

Disaster!!:
The socks ended up on a 40 degree cotton wash. To my horror, this was the result.

Now the only one who can wear the socks is my German Shepherd Sheba, and she really isn't very keen on the idea.
