Winter Ice
socks being knit with dyed sock blank October 2021 |
I was eager to cast on a pair of socks with one of the sock blanks I dyed last week. The resulting socks are pleasantly appealing despite the obscure design I "painted" on the blank.
The socks remind me of a frosty and cold morning winter morning.
More photos will be posted as the socks progress.
Oh wow! They are turning out great Nancy. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteWhat a surprise they way they look....
ReplyDeleteThat is totally intriguing to see how the pattern is evolving so differently from the painted blank. Who would know that was possible?
ReplyDeleteWowza!!!! You managed to dye a sock blank that didn't end up looking like just a hodge podge of colors. No matter what I did all my socks always came out looking the same with just random blobs of colors but yours are just amazing. Well done!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the way those socks are turning out. Winter Ice is a great name. Did you get any of the snow and ice predicted for Wyoming? It's turning into an early winter for a lot of people.

Knitting from blankes is always so neat!
ReplyDeleteI never wou1d have thought they wou1d come out this way! coo1!
ReplyDeleteThose are really nice! Wilton icing gels, huh?
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say but WOW, havent they turned out well. We will all be wanting to dye sock blanks now! And I've found out that they are made here in New Zealand too.
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy working with a sock blank--so far they have never turned out as I thought they would but they are always fun to knit!!! I love what you have come up with--the icy winter theme!
ReplyDeleteLove those socks! I have a blank somewhere but have never tried it. Now if I can find it, you've inspired me to get going!
ReplyDeleteFun to see how they will turn out!
ReplyDeleteThose socks look so cool. You did a great painting job.
