WinterWonderland Sock

  • Start planning for the new socks. I’m using the West Yorkshire Spinners Signature yarn, plus the sparkling white yarn from Colourmart as a contrast colour.
  • It took me a while to divide the self-striping WYS yarn. It’s quite difficult to figure out where the colour starts so it didn’t end up very evenly.
  • Yarn weight
    • White: 22g (inc. paper roll), exclude paper roll is 15g
    • WYS yarn: one ball in 47g, other in 50g, plus 2g of yarn left due to colour matching
  • Cuff: CO 56 sts to get a sock with more negative ease, using German twisted cast on. Knit 2x2 rib for 10 rows and then a plain row for a smooth transition.
