There is a video on my blog with a rave review from our youngest son (holding the hose in the above screen cap).

Wow, I just love knitting cables and those hose looks just great Is your wife a member on ravelry???
If not please tell her about it and make her join this amazing groups site. There are also free patterns for socks and great groups to liking or you can make your own group if it's not. It's just HUGE and I still love it over there after a few years

My husband and son have handknitted socks as well and my son is almost 10 years and loves his socks. If I ask him what socks he wants to wear it's mostly the hand knitted one and sometimes I must say during summer that he shouldn't wear them because they're too hot and his answer is, mom if it's too hot I can always take them off but now I want to wear them He's sweet.
