In the process of #knitting my first Lopi sweater, the Riddari. It’s bottom up, and I’m just about to start on the first colorwork bit after the ribbing. I love the yarn so much! Bless those Icelandic sheep 😂🧶
Finished #knitting another pair of socks tonight. I have a bunch of sweater yarn on the way so I’m finishing up stuff that was already on my needles before it arrives 🧶🧦
Finished #knitting another couple pairs of socks. That’s 15 for the year so far 🧦🧶
Just a couple of pairs of socks I finished #knitting recently 😁🧶🧦
Finished #knitting the first sock in a new pair tonight. Yarn is Whaley House by Polymorph Dye Works. Green tweed accent is Harvest Festival from a pack of minis I got from Knit Picks last year 🧶🧦
Finished this pair last night for a friend. First time #knitting shorties socks and I love how they turned out. No pattern, just 7 rows of 2x2 rib and 8 rows for the foot before a standard heel flap and gusset. Yarn is Knit Picks Stroll Effects in the Koi Pond colorway 🧦🧶
Just a couple of socks I finished #knitting recently. Working on their mates now. I’ve been much more active on Instagram lately, so if you’re over there, follow along! www.instagram.com/jamesknitsso...
Was in the hospital for most of the week but I finally managed to finish #knitting this pair of socks for my wife today. See previous post for yarn/pattern deets 🧦🧶
Finished #knitting the first sock in a new pair for my wife. Main color is Trapper Keeper by Polymorphy Dye Works and the pink accent is from a Valentine set by Wilderness Fiber on Etsy. Pattern is Hermione’s Everyday Socks. I love how it turned out 😍🧶🧦
Home from the Central PA Fiber Fesitval. Had a blast, as always, and came away with lots of yarn for sock #knitting. Already can’t wait to go back next year 😂🧶🧦
Fresh off the #knitting needles. This is pair number 8 for the year. Nothing special. Basic vanilla sock pattern with a 2x2 ribbed cuff. Yarn is Arne & Carlos 😁🧶🧦
Yeah but usually the label says Regia on it like this. I’ve never seen yarn with just a straight Arne & Carlos label with no mention on Regia on it before.
First time #knitting socks with Arne & Carlos yarn. I’ve used their Regia Design Line before but never their own label. It’s feels very similar so maybe it’s the same source? Either way, I like it. Feels very soft yet durable 😁🧶🧦
Fresh off the #knitting needles. My Frog & Toad socks. Started April 19, finished April 27. Kay Jones’ Crunkled Sock Pattern on the leg for texture. 2.5mm needles. Eyes of Partridge heel flap 🧶🧦🐸
Finally knitting up my Frog & Toad socks using the yarn I got last year from Frog It! Yarns. I used Kay Jones’ Crunkled Sock pattern on the leg, and straight vanilla after that. Should he done by the fiber fest so I can show Tasha 🙂🧶🧦🐸
Knit Picks recently had a $10 sale on yarn, so I grabbed a hank of Hawthorne in Cosmic Speckle, and a hank of Stroll Effects in Koi. Can’t wait to start #knitting these up into socks 😍🧶🧦
Started #knitting this sock on Friday night and finished it today. Decided to use the Crunkled Sock pattern by Kay Jones for a a bit of texture. Yarn is OnLine 6-ply DK Supersocke in the Alpin colorway 🧶🧦
My mum requested a pair of socks that have “some blue in them.” 😂 Here’s the first of the pair I just finished #knitting. Yarn is Opal Rainforest in the Parrot colorway 🧶🧦
Finished #knitting another pattern repeat on this sock. I love it so much 😍🧶🧦
Started #knitting the Escher Socks from Summer Lee’s book, The Sock Obsession. I’m kind of loving them 😍🧶🧦
Got my copy of The Sock Obsession today. There’s so many great sock #knitting patterns in here. It’s going to be hard to pick just one to begin with 😂🧶🧦
Just finished #knitting this pair of socks for myself. I believe it’s my third set of the year 🙂 Yarn is Sockenwolle from Hobbi 🧶🧦
Finished #knitting a sock for my wife this weekend. Now finishing off another pair for myself before I go back and knit her other one 😁🧶🧦
