another pair ready to go

Here is a pair knit in worsted weight wool.  I took a class to learn how to dye wool and used the resulting yarn to knit these.  They go on my feet - as you can see - so should fit an older kid or a woman with feet that are sort of medium sized.

These children's socks are going in the mail today.

I used 2 strands of an alpaca and wool variegated
sock yarn and one of an all wool worsted to make these.  The sock yarn was left over from an earlier
A4A pair I made.  They look a little different in shape  because of how they were laid out - but I think they are just alike.

Another pair......


...is on their way.

On Their Way

This pair of socks was sent on its way today. I might have time to make another pair before the end of the month.

I used a skein and a half of Lion Wool (Cadet Blue) and knit a longer leg for more coverage.

July's Socks

I finally got these socks finished - will drop them in the mail as soon as possible.  Nice to think of someone a world away wearing and enjoying these nice warm socks.

On Their Way


These thick Nature Spun 100% wool socks were mailed out Monday afternoon. Another pair should be in the mail next week. I didn't block them, I just like to use the stretchers to take pictures with.
