Uniquely Mine

Women's size 10
September 2020

Sock blank dyed on Tuesday
Knitting began on Wednesday
Toes grafted on Friday

unblocked sock

Even though the yarn was knit directly from the sock blank and was kinky, the texture of the finished sock does not reflect it. 

socks and remaining yarn

Knit Picks Stroll bare yarn sock blank -- 100 grams of super wash wool/nylon

Finished socks -- 59 grams

Remaining yarn  -- 41 grams

I ordered additional sock blanks and look forward to making more socks that are uniquely mine.

  1. They turned out great Nancy! I can't believe how fast you knit them. Maybe making your own yarn speeds things up? The wanting to see how they turn out...Great job! You could make some fingerless mitts with the left over yarn.

  3. Turned out beautifully! I really like those colors. And the process was fascinating to me - the non-knitter.

  4. Bravo!!!! Did you take the time to eat this week?! That was a great inspiration of a project! I am impressed. So will you make fingerless mitts out of the remaining yarn?

  5. Oh, aren't those fun! I imagine that opening your sock drawer every morning must bring a smile to your face - such a pretty collection from which to choose!

  7. Great Job Nancy! You make me want to try a sock blank pair. But, I'd better finish the socks I'm working on first! And just how long did it take you on these socks?
