I can’t imagine knitting a 3rd color work sock - let alone 2 😂 The project bag looks great on KZbin and I love those cabled mittens!!!! I’m still chugging along on my gib sweater but also now working on the night and day cowl with some handspun

Knitters Pride Karbonz double points are great imho.😊

[@cindyh112]

Good morning. I rarely make the same thing twice because there are too many nice patterns out there. So, I can’t imagine making a 3rd sock 😂. I have two crochet projects on my hook and have made a little progress on the knit Be Brave Shawl. Love to bring my wips on car trips or when I travel by air and have long periods of waiting. Keep up the great work, you have a great podcast with lots of variety. 🌴☀️🌴

[@hattyknitsalong]

Thank you so much for your kind words! And yeah, a third sock is a BIG ask haha. We will see what happens…

[@sharonhoughton8057]

I love your podcasts, so informative and interesting. From New Hampshire USA. I also knit socks, toe up is my jam.

[@hattyknitsalong]

Thanks for watching! My husband is from New Hampshire, I just love New England.

Good Morning I’m knitting socks with Trailhead Yarns in 65%cotton /35% Nylon fingering weight. It’s so different than wool but very cool too.

[@hattyknitsalong]

Oh wow, I would love to know how it feels to wear these. Thanks for sharing!

🤔 For the sock KAL yarn, have you looked to see if anyone made Andrea's sweater pattern with the same stitch using striped yarn? If so, do you like the outcome? I tend to only use tonals for socks with texture, although some patterns work well with stripes. Anyway, just my thoughts.

[@hattyknitsalong]

This is a great tip. I looked it up, and a bunch of people have already made the socks and used variegated or self-striping yarn. I think they look pretty good. I think in that regard the texture just adds some squish factor to the socks. :)

[@pauladailey530]

I say Pink socks😁🧦💕

[@hattyknitsalong]

I’m am for sure leaning this way. 🤭

[@Reknits4me]

I’d use the orange personally. I’m also participating. I’m using a FDF SOCK YARN.

[@hattyknitsalong]

Thanks! What color is your yarn?

[@Reknits4me]

@ it’s from the March 2024 Sock Squad called Grandma’s Hands

[@Reknits4me]

I’d say a variegated medium rust.

[@hattyknitsalong]

Oh yeah I got that one. Very pretty color, I did a lace panel on ribbed socks pattern was “Barbara Socks” by Summer Lee. I think it’ll be great for the Oxbow socks ☺️

[@AndreaSnow21]

I thought about joining that sock knit along, but it would be my first pair of socks and not sure that I could get it done in 4 days.

[@hattyknitsalong]

Well no one says you have to finish them in four days! This would probably be a great pattern to start with, they look pretty simple in terms of construction. Let me know if you decide to join in!

[@debbyflowers1488]

Won't be joining the KAL as that will be a very busy time for me. My husband and I are farmers and I vend at various events to sell our products. I have an event for the day after Thanksgiving and that Saturday too. I have a sock project that I bring to events to work on between customers.
