Honestly knit socks are probably humanity’s best invention

Sock!!

I have finished the toe. No specific pattern but guidance from https://nimble-needles.com/tutorials/how-to-knit-socks-toe-up/

the best people to knit socks for are people in wheelchairs. It’s the best of both worlds. U get to knit someone socks, they still get used, but they will be in pristine condition for a very long time

People tell me you don't need to block socks but...this is unblocked:

And this is blocked:

And we'll even if it just makes them prettier I'm gonna keep doing it.

finally posting some recently finished socks! pattern is Mountain Sock by Rachel Nutting

first time changing color at cuff and toe… wishing i had remembered to use the alternate color for the heel turn as well, but i had fun with it and used up some scrap as intended

Alright!! I finished another pair of socks!!

I learned so many things making these and I am extremely proud.

These are the slipstream socks if anyone else wants to make them.

I learned to read charts and also do the Kitchener stitch!

new sock!

i did this poll (more than a week ago whoops) about which yarn/pattern combo you all wanted to see! here's how it turned out:

the results were overwhelmingly in favor of the Ziprelaxagon pattern paired with the Helix Nebula yarn! this combo was in fact my original plan (like, i've been wanting to pair these for months) so it was funny to see that others had the same idea.

i spent some time earlier this week swatching with the other yarn and patterns, first, and then cast on Ziprelaxagon a couple nights ago, and OH MY GOD i CANNOT put them down, i'm having such a blast knitting these and the yarn is so pretty aaaaaaaa

(shown on hand because they're kinda wonky unblocked)

the pattern has you work them toe-up, but i like how they look "upside down" so i will probably flip these and call this the cuff side. that means i have to work out the heel shaping in reverse but i think i can do it! i'll post another update if i do

thanks for reading!

Still on track for 12 pairs of socks in 12 months. Third pair was finished last night. The color is inspired by Gilbert Blythe aka one of my favorite characters.
