While these are fun, they only work for a “standard” foot. You have to cast on 64 stitches, you dont have the option to make the leg longer or shorter. If you have a high instep, you wont be able to make a larger heel flap. And if you wear a bigger size shoe (larger than a size 9), the solid toe color ends up being REALLY long and looks ridiculous. Just some things to consider.
@hollybellknits 21 күн бұрын
Yes, this is true! As long as you stay within the parameters of 64 stitches and want a standard vanilla sock knitted for a standard foot, you’re golden.

I don’t like making anything in pairs. No socks or gloves for me! I lose interest/focus. I made it through Sophie’s Universe blanket book of 216 pages because it was challenging. But I can’t make it through a one page pattern twice. 😆 Oh, and I won your giveaway! Thank you so much! I’m sending you my info right now.
@hollybellknits 28 күн бұрын
This is so interesting! I can totally see that. If I don't cast on the second one in a pair of something right after I finish the first, it becomes a whole ordeal for me to want to do it. There's no stinkin way I'd make it through 216 pages of a pattern lol. Hats off to you my friend!

Oh my, that fox experience was a little scary!! Foxes do make some strange sounds!! We occasionally see them around our neighborhood too. I would highly recommend taking pepper spray in case of a more vicious loose dog. I had a some loose German Shepherd that attacked my small dog. I barely had to use it, but it worked. It saved my dog's life.

You know, I've been thinking about carrying something for that purpose and you saying that makes me want to go ahead and get something.

I was the exact same way. Patterns are hard and feel overwhelming when you’re learning. My first sweater was the free Flax pattern by Tin Can Knits. It was so much easier than I anticipated and they really walk you through everything. I used worsted weight yarn to keep it easy to see my stitches and that was helpful too.
