Well, May is nearly upon us, and I believe it is time to express how wacky things are through our socks!!!
There are no specific patterns, and the color is “clown barf”. Show us how wacky you can be in your sock knitting!!!
You can, of course, knit whatever socks you choose, but if it is wacky and/or colorful you get extra “entries” in our finished thread. Patterns are allowed to be amended for size and preferences.
Help those of us who need some inspiration - what wacky socks are you planning to knit?
@knitter131 is donating a skein of yarn this month. I’ll get a picture up as soon as I can.
I’m using the three mini skeins to make some short cut socks. I’m considering these wacky socks but a good wacky! I’m carrying the blue and green through the socks and will end with green toes.
I’ve started granddaughters socks. She was quite excited. Hoping I can finish them by the time she comes again next week Tuesday. She picked out a fair isle chart to go around the top from a book I have and picked the colors. The green yarn is Cascade and the navy is deep stash with no band but I believe it is an acrylic from Michael’s.
I’m ready to switch back to socks after finishing my diamond in the ruff blanket and a few other spring cleaning projects that failed. I’m thinking about hairy leg or bubble wrap ankle socks :rolleyes:
@knitter131 - I saw your comment on the affiliate page that you love Ice yarns. They certainly are a good price. Have you used their sock yarn? What did you think? Soft? Durable?
It is among my favorite sock yarns, washes up very softly. I actually just placed an order for some of their hand dyed sock yarns as I am very curious as to how that washes and feels. Their shipping is expensive, but when the skein of sock yarn is still under $5.00 even after shipping, it’s a deal.
