I knit a lot of washcloths when I started. Then hats. Now I’m trying my hand at socks. But I want the socks to be more like slipper-socks because I can’t imagine knitting a pair that would be reasonable to wear with shoes.
Here is a pic of a breast cancer awareness washcloth that I made. I’ve named these nip-kins.
And now I have another item added to my to-knit list. This is so beautiful!
Impressed with your dedication to complete this with all the busyness going on in your life.
I’ll be curious to know if you think this pattern might be first-timer-friendly. New acronym: FTF
I love the look of tight/small knit. And I’m currently lamenting that love on my own WIP.
That’s a great color of yarn!
Oooo, that’s a great idea! Although I’d be doing a lot of hoping for the best when it comes to circumference!
Hopefully I won’t get 3rd and 4th sock syndrome! ;)
I think next time I’ll do a cable pattern or something else to keep the process a little more interesting.
I love this! I think your friend will be so pleased.
Thanks for starting this community! I’m a pretty new knitter. And I’m super bad with timelines but I think I successfully started about a year ago. I say successfully started because I had tried to knit in the past and couldn’t get it to stick.
Right now, I am working on a project that has two firsts for me: 2 at a time toe up socks. My first pair I knitted 1 at a time from the cuff down.
I’m not completely sold on 2 at a time. It’s seems very fiddly! Perhaps I just need to get a better hang of it. I also need to figure out why the heck my toes have that weird poke out. Ah, learning curves!
Start at the beginning of summer to be done in time for winter!
It’s beautiful, looks like it will be wonderfully cozy.
Kitchen scale is how I did it, too. I’m doing my first pair like this and they are also taking ages. Feels like, anyway!
They look excellent. I really like the smooth rounding of the toes.
