“You can talk if you like about bacon and greens, speak of roast turkey and game, you can sing all the praises of Boston baked beans; I relish them all but my greatest delight is a big piece of gooseberry pie! Oh how I love gooseberry pie, oh my, how I love gooseberry pie, since the time of the flood there’s been nothing so good; as luscious as gooseberry pie…and the people that seek my friendship must first fill me plump full of gooseberry pie”

The Gooseberry Pie Song was sung by the Ranch Boys in the 1930”s. If you have a chance, listen to the song. It’s fun and catchy just like the Gooseberry Pie socks! Have you ever had gooseberry pie?

Gooseberry Pie Socks are fun to knit. They have a picot petal cast on with a diagonal right and left pattern, Dutch heel and standard short row toe. Written and charted instructions included.
