#knittingsocks

1 post1 participant0 posts today
fibers.and.craftsLast weekend I finished a pair of socks that I casted on on New Year's Eve when I was in desperate need of spring back then and these colours scream spring to me. They are also some kind of souvenir socks as I bought the yarn (LITLG Fine Sock) on a trip to Berlin a few months ago.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/knitting?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/knittingsocks?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knittingsocks</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/spring?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#spring</a>
ArtsandSocks 🧶🪡<p>My April socks have started early. I love this rainbow ombre yarn. It brightens my day, and helps me forget that it is still snowing. The yarn colour is called Harmony, and they are a birthday gift for a May birthday.<br><a href="https://ottawa.place/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>knitting</span></a> <a href="https://ottawa.place/tags/knittingsocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>knittingsocks</span></a></p>

ArtsandSocks 🧶🪡<p>I finished my February socks ( on March 1). Close! I grafted the toe on the second sock, this morning, and now they are ready to wear.

ArtsandSocks 🧶🪡<p>Important question for the sock knitters: How many pairs of hand knit socks should I have?

Naomi<p>I am still not sure about the best way to cast on a cuff down knitted sock. I tried different cast ons but I am never really happy with it. Sometimes it is a bit tight, but neat, other times it is loose enough, but not so neat. And of course I want it to be perfect: easy to put on and great looking 😇</p><p>What way do you prefer to cast on your cuff down knitted socks?

Gard Witch Craft<p>My long socks are done! I love these colors, this yarn, this project. If this wasn't my "year without buying yarn" I'd have bought more colors.<br>I ditched the idea of ​​making a heel called Strong and made my usual boomerang.

Gard Witch Craft<p>Not much progress this week. Several projects on hold. Still knitting long socks (started the second yesterday) and Paul Scarf (already done all the increases).

Gard Witch Craft<p>So, this is really surprising to me, but today was a very productive day. I'm working on 4 projects:<br>1. Paul Scarf from the English tutorial on Ravelry. Oh my god, that's... unusual (more on that next time).<br>2. Started new socks because I want to try a new heel in a quick-knit yarn. I don't usually need a gusset, so I like the boomerang heel, but it doesn't look good with the striped yarn from the previous post.<br>3. Crochet squares according to plan: 4 left. Yesterday I hid the ends from the center, today I'm doing my first attempts at washing and blocking.<br>4. The tank top I knitted on the knitting machine, washed and blocked.</p><p><a href="https://toot.garden/tags/Knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Knitting</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/KnittingSocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KnittingSocks</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/HandMade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HandMade</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/Crafts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Crafts</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/WIP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WIP</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/Crochet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Crochet</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/KnittingMachine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KnittingMachine</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/WIPWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WIPWednesday</span></a></p>
Gard Witch Craft<p>Start a new sock project. But didn't take into account that I want to try a new type of heel. I usually knit new types of heels in home socks. It probably makes sense to start another pair for this purpose.</p><p><a href="https://toot.garden/tags/Knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Knitting</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/KnittingSocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KnittingSocks</span></a></p>
penpencilbrush🇨🇦<p>It was a bit of a faff, but 2 sort of matching socks that fit successfully have been achieved.<br>Figured out why the '48 rows' stuck in my brain - it's the number of rows for the leg. Sort of going on auto rather than completely lost my mind.<br>Left photo is new and improved sock, or After.
