This time around was way easier, in part because I used knitting needles that were one size larger than the ones I used for my dad's socks and in part because this sock pattern was much simpler.
Pattern: Simple Skyp Socks (FREE on Craftsy;! Note that this is an affiliate link.)
Yarn: Schoppel Zauberball in 1507 Autumn Wind
I made these for Alex, and he seemed to prefer this yarn over the yarn I used to make my dad's socks. And the color changes in the yarn mean that you don't need a crazy complicated stitch to make the socks look awesome.
The time for sock knitting is about to end, so maybe I should try to squeeze one more pair in for myself before winter is over!
nice! great color too ...
ReplyDeletei'd love to be able to get past the '1 sock syndrome' lol : )
