2nd sock design: Big fat rib!
January 25, 2012 § Leave a comment
Made another pair of really long socks. This time with a sport-weight sock yarn and a stripy chunky rib on top. The rib is striped with double-held fingering sock yarn. Use various leftovers for a contrasting effect.

SOCKS !

I’ve kind of obsessed with making perfectly fitted socks (!)
I always do them toe-up, two-at-a-time on a Magic loop with gusset and a heel flap.
Yarn: Regia Hand-dye Effect
Yarn: Mayflower Strømpegarn
Yarn: Hjertegarn Ragg-strømpegarn
As my sock experience progresses I start to picture my own socks and I have this thing with knee-highs generously topped with a textured band to fold. My first attempt turned out quite successful and in time I will make a pattern for it.
Yarn: Hjertegarn Ragg-strømpegarn
Now I’m trying to make a pair in a sport weight-yarn with a striped top made from leftovers.
Yarn: Zwerger Garn, Opal Regenwald 6-ply + scrap
