Traveling again - this time it's a fiber festival I've wanted to go to for a few years but it's about 4 hours away. This year there's another event on the same weekend somewhat near that festival so the hours spent going there seem used better.

First sock in all its glory.
Seems like I'll need to buy another skein in that color way, it's just too pretty.
And I just realized the pretty German word "Ringelsocke" doesn't translate into English. 🧐
I grabbed the v pattern from these socks https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/passion-knit-socks.
It's very squishy, adding a lot of extra layers. This is probably a good pattern stitch for places where extra layers are a good idea (hat, backside of mittens ...)

"Officially" I'm working on a summer top.
Inofficially I love these socks so much, that I bing knit on it over the weekend and the first one is already finished.
And a tad too small. I used more sts than usual (because 2.0 mm needles instead of 2.25 mm needles) and I made more rounds on the foot.
But it's not enough.
Now I'll have to ask my daughter if she wants them ...

Last year I found a bunch of interesting looking DPNs, which probably are antique.
Today I finally got around to measuring them - the later ones are about 2 mm, the thinner ones are 1.5 mm 😮
I decided to try the larger ones on my next sock project
They work great, even when they are a bit longer than I like my needles. Completely smooth, the sts just glide along.

Got the work thing done, back to the puttering around (metaphorically) thing now. Palworld is stupid moreish. First sock is almost done. So good. I guess. Just crossing fingers that tomorrow isn't too bad, 'cause we're off work next week, and I would like to enter that caught up.

Just decided to use a variation of the pattern that was on the vest I made last week. Fewer sts so I can fit it 4 times around the leg.
-
Starting new socks
That's manly colors in my household so I'm casting on 72 sts.
Let's see what I come up with after the cuff...
-
Finished. Actually the next pair is also finished but I didn't get to take pictures before today. Pictures for the other ones will come soon.
They are for my daughter and she loves them. The brioche stripes add some really nice squishyness - I think I really should use that stitch more often, especially for socks.

I've made quite the progress on my second Christmas sock: the heel is turned! Onward to finish all the rounds on the leg. Have a lovely Monday! 😃

One down, one to go.
I think I like how this turns out so far.
-
Happy chicken-socks-day, if you observe!
-
Heel turned. I've added a smattering of the same lace to the leg and foot, but on stockinette background instead of garter stitch.
-
On the road again - so much time traveling recently, this time to visit my MIL for the Easter holiday with our son who hasn't seen his Grandma in a long time.
New sock project to keep me occupied in the passenger seat.
This is a lace edge that will be a fold over the cuff. Yarn is from last year's #Schafpate collection in the color way "Wildblumenwiese" (wild flower meadow), the lace pattern is called Daisy lace 🌼
-
Still knitting the same pair of socks.
I'm feeling a bit under the weather the last few days, so not a lot of progress. But a long weekend is ahead and quite a bit of traveling again.
-
Remember this post? ⬆️
Well, I stalled a while before starting the embroidery, but ta-da! Right in time for easter-y spring-y season.
-
A measure of how much too large the carousel socks were for my feet: I’m knitting a regular toe-up sock with the frogged yarn, and just the heel hexagon takes me almost to the cuff!
My mum has mentioned how much she likes the yarn three times now so these will be for her.
-
More travel knitting - this time a train ride, on the way to Vienna.
Socks, of course. No pattern, just a stitch I found somewhere.
-
More socks ... because I can't decide what else to make (or which project to finish).
Pattern is "Silver Lace Socks" https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/silver-lake-socks
The pattern says it's for a fingering weight yarn, but 3.0 mm needles and 48 sts for an adult sock point more in the direction of a sport weight yarn.
Anyway, I'm using 66 sts and all the usual adaptions. And ssk instead of k2togtbl.
-
And they are done. With all of 2.9 g of yarn left over ... Which is enough so I didn't feel like I'm playing yarn chicken - so maybe a perfect use of the yarn?
Anyway - the pattern stitch is from a design called "Thorsminde", which is a Danish village we actually passed through with a short stop last summer (I only realized that after finishing the socks).
Yarn is a hand dyed merino sock from Bart & Francis https://www.bart-francis.be/en/merinosock-softysock-75-25/g-118

Wenn es zum Teekauf Wolle dazu gibt, kann ich auch nichts dafür, dass ich mir jetzt Hasensocken stricken muss 😉 #sockknitting #eastersocks #sockenstricken

Wie viele mismatched Socken ich wohl noch stricken muss, bevor ich neue Wolle kaufen darf. #mismatchedsocks #sockenstricken #sockknitting

More travel knitting - on our way back home.
The second such shortly before the heel increases start. One day I might learn that knitting while sitting in a hotel bed is not comfortable and I don't have to bring a lot of extra yarn for such trips. One day.

*frogged*
I dropped a stitch when attaching yarn for a forethought heel. Toe down sock, stitch on the toe-side of the hole so the stitches are 'upside down'. I cannot get my brain around how to pick it up properly. Anyone with a (link to a) good explanation? I really don't want to unravel the whole foot.
Edit: it’s technically picked up in the pic, but it doesn’t look right in the red/pink colorwork (gaping stitches). I’m looking for the correct way to fix.
-
One down, one more to go.
Colors from the picture above are more accurate. I made an additional modification while I was at it: some ribbing under the arch. I've done that a few times in the last few years and quite liked it but then I forgot about that again. Now let's see if my partner likes that.
Link to pattern is in the post above.
-
All done!
Pattern: Trail Magic socks by Summer Lee
Yarn: Lang Jawoll 94 (cream), 60 (red), 250 (ochre) and 109 (pink)

Float appreciation toot. #knitting #sockknitting

The first sock is done, so I've started the second one 😃
