aurora borealis socks
March 17, 2010
Somehow these socks were never documented even though they were finished almost a year ago.
The pattern is a bog standard toe-up, with afterthought heel and shaping for the calf. I don’t much like having a bound-off edge at the top of a sock, so the cuff was started separately with a long tail cast on, knit downward, and grafted on. Extra work but worth it.
The yarn is one skein Fearless Fibers Superwash Merino Sock in the Marrakesh colourway and one skein Twisted Fiber Art Playful in Lizardman, in alternating stripes of four rows each.
Same striping pattern as this Noro sock I’m never going to finish.
