The first design I did for the Happy Trails Socks Book, it was inspired by a vintage Barbed Wire collection at a Cowboy Museum in Wyoming. I sat in front of that display with my sketch book & graph paper for hours! They must have thought I was a little ‘teched’, there were 78 different varieties of patented wires in that collection, a lot of food for Fairisle thought…

Happy Trails Socks was a booklet available from the , Wooly West.The book is now out of print.
