Thank you for replying, that's a good idea about the mini skeins but yes I think you're right, surely more is better anyway 😁
Thank you for replying, that makes perfect sense!
Silly Billy question but when knitting colourwork socks, do I need to buy full skeins of the accent colours as they'll be carried along with the main colour? #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky Does this even make sense 😅

Ooh thanks so much! I have added them to my faves
You are clever! I need to learn that technique
I reckon they'd be quite comfy as there's so seams / joins
That's a good idea! Do you have them each on separate needles? Will look it up!
Sorry to have taken so long to see this!! They are called the Baby Tube Socks and are on Ravelry by Hilke Buss / Haalu the Ugly Bunny (I think the latter might be the name of the book they're in?)
My adventures in sock knitting are ongoing, with my third pair of Vanilla Socks 50% complete. This time using Glow Sticks by @dyedinthewoolyarns.bsky.social I feel ready to try another pattern after these, I think. It would be good to learn something new 🧦

Thank you! The twist makes them very stretchy 😁
Hooray they're finished! 🥳 I realise now my first sock in a pair will be the dodgy / froggy one & the second sock will go quickly & relatively smoothly!

This has taken me an embarrassing amount of attempts & 16 bloody days!!! Must have frogged 🐸 3 or 4 times as well has having to put a few lifelines in & rip back due to mistakes. Thought it would be easy!! But anyway, tube socks 🧦 halfway made, one more to go!! #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky
I'm enjoying them now I've got the hang of the pattern 😁
So sweet 😍
Thank you Ellie 💖
As I'm new to knitting, this is the only baby item I've got for #showmeyourknits but I'm excited to join in at last!!

Looks fantastic, well done!
It has done, when you said maybe one foot was bigger it was a funny thought to me that getting a bigger foot would solve the bigger sock problem 😁
I haven't noticed one foot is bigger than the other but maybe that's something i can work on? 😂 Will give these a block and see how they look. Thanks for replying 💕
The reply I needed to hear 😁
Thanks Alison, will give it a go
Okkkkk my second pair of socks is finished 🧦 My tension is a bit looser on the second sock (right), because I put it down & picked it up a lot more than the first sock. Not entirely happy but could be worse. Would blocking help? I don't have sock blockers #knitting #knitsky #sockknitting
