    First sock finished. This is a short cut sock for my four-year-old grandson. You can see the kinky texture where I used frogged yarn but it will smooth out after washing.

      These are super cute!! I was wondering if these would work as short socks. The ones in making for Gauge are y'all but his brother, Luke, mostly wears short socks but I want sure how they would look.

      I always reach for stubby pencils first as they are wonderful to use, and become favorites. Yours are adorable!

      I was productive on our Fiberkind Zoom meeting today. I finished my pencil socks. Now they need a good soaking to get the kinky bumps out from using frogged yarn.

          Click image for larger version Name: IMG_20200912_171544.jpg Views: 3 Size: 103.9 KB ID: 73254 First sock finished in my Just Cuz shorties modified to toe up from the pattern Impossible Girl by Madeline Gannon. I've used this pattern many times. It's one of my go-to patterns for every day socks. It's written cuff down.

          I almost forgot to post these! I finished my Just Cuz socks and have cast on another pair of pencil socks, although they are not exactly traditional pencils. 😉

          Just finished my “Back to School” socks. Yarn is a Knit Picks Felici. I always think of bright colors when I think of school. Especially those years in elementary school 😊😊

            I'm a newbie here, so excuse me for just butting in without following the theme. I finished these purple sock a couple of weeks ago. They have nothing to do with back-to-school though.
