A pair of hand-knit socks on someone’s feet, resting on a tiled floor. The socks feature a warm colorwork pattern in brown garnet, orange, and yellow, with orange toes and heels, and a deep brown cuff. The intricate design has a repeating geometric motif that feels autumnal.

The pair of socks is laid flat on a black surface, neatly stacked one over the other. The brown cuff, orange toe and heel, and the warm patterned colorwork in brown garnet, orange, and yellow are fully visible, highlighting the even stitches and cozy autumn aesthetic.

Inspired by Something Wicked This Way Comes β€” rich brown garnet, glowing orange, and golden yellow capture that perfect spooky-season mood. Think carnival lights, rustling leaves, and October magic. ✨πŸŽͺ

What vibes do these colors give you? This is the starting palette for my next socks. Can’t wait to see how they knit up together. Happy Friday!!

New in the shop: Hobbiton Harvest socks πŸ§¦πŸ‚

Hand-knit and inspired by warm fields, second breakfasts, and all things cozy in the Shire. Perfect for adventures big and small (or just curling up with a good book).

Thank you, wish I could claim to be a natural, but it took 20 years of failing till I managed the perfect fitting sock. ❀️ Snug and warm like a hug.

Close-up of a hand-knit sock in progress on double-pointed needles, worked in warm autumnal colors of deep red, chocolate brown, and light beige. The sock features intricate stranded colorwork patterns, with the cuff, heel, and toe in solid brown. It rests inside a patterned fabric project bag, with balls of brown and beige yarn nearby.

First project off the needles for 2025. Used the #antlertoque by tincanknits pattern (find it on Ravelry!). Great pattern for busting through my rando stash and interested to see how the fit changes once blocked.

Whew! Only took me three tries to finish the ONE glove, but I’m loving the look and feel. Definitely going to have to make its mate and block these babies. #knitting #wip #fingerlessglove #knitpicks #knitpicksswishyarn #newskills
