Sock Explosion

I finished up the mismatched socks for Kira 2 weeks ago
They turned out pretty cute!!!!
I'm making more and I can't seem to stop!!!

I made an adult sized mismatched socks
These even had a ribbed pattern on the top

Now I've started on some rainbow socks!!!

This is my problem - I tend to fall in love with a craft and go overboard with it! 
Oh well!
There are going to be a lot of happy and well dressed feet when I am done!!!!

I do have to add for my knitting friends that knitting socks from the toe up and two at a time is the way to go!!!  I tried using double pointed needles and doing it the "traditional" way and it was confusing! I finished, but I had to look at videos and stop and restart - I was not a fan.  
I'm glad I saw this method because it makes sense! Plus finishing both socks at the same time, knowing they are the exact same length is perfect!!!  I highly recommend the Toe-up 2-at-a-time sock book!

  1. So cute!
    Have you tried leg warmers yet? You can look at my Etsy favorites to see some cute ones. May want to order some from you if you're willing to try & have the time :)

  2. Now, I am really going to have to get that book and give them a try!! I may not always want to wear mismatched pairs - but I know I want to wear matched pairs and the toe up and 2 at a time makes real sense!

  3. I think I need to get in on this sock explosion. When are you going to sell some so I can buy a pair??
