Scrappy Striped Socks

| Scrappy Striped Socks July & August 2016 |
• cuff was knit with the remnants of Ragg Socks
• heel flap knit with an oddball skein used for toes and heels
• burgundy and teal stripes knit with remnants of Emma's Cowl
• grey stripes knit with remnants of Single Skein Socks II
I've started the cuff on the second sock, so I don't forget the details of this pair of scrappy-striped socks.
Needles: US 2 -- 16 inch circulars
Stitch count: 64 for cuff and a longer gusset, and 56 for the foot.
I think they are kind of sassy scrappy socks! Love them
ReplyDeleteNice! Do you splice the ends? If so, how?
ReplyDeleteThey have a fun patriotic look.
ReplyDeleteI love the scrappy socks and I love that you mixed yarns! I've never been brave enough to do that but I will surely try it. Anything to reduce stash.
ReplyDeleteNice!! You do a great job of mixing colours!!
ReplyDeleteI always like to knit things like socks together.... It seems the second is always slightly off if I don't!!
These look great. Like Judy, I'm wondering how you add the yarn - splice?
ReplyDeleteThat's turning out great! Good job "matching" the odd balls to the cuff yarn.
ReplyDeleteYou win the prize for using up your yarn leftovers! Or at least making a dent in them. Nice looking sock.
ReplyDeleteYou do so well with all kinds of scraps, Nancy! I think they are great and I like how a little bit of previous projects are infused into the socks. Hope you are well!
ReplyDeleteAll put together like that it reminds me of Kroy sock yarn. Good color choices!
ReplyDeleteInstead of reading blogs I should be knitting ;) I love the colors in this pair.
