SockTart Episode 4: Much Better IKEA
SockTart Episode Four: Much Better IKEA
Maire gives the lowdown on what everyone’s up to & talks a lot about sock patterns & stuff.
Off the needles:
- Nanner #1
- Monkeymen #1
We are considering throwing up the Monkeymen pattern for testknitting…we provide the pattern, you provide the yarn…it’s a win-win
On the Needles:
- Plain old socks in Opal Petticoat Cotton
- Sweet Pea Socks in Cherry Tree Hill, “Lottery” colourway
Lesser Known Sock:
- as we are not above bribing rewarding our listeners, we will be voting on the best lesser-known, unappreciated sock to be knit over the course of the month. You could walk away with a lovely skein of Cherry Tree Hill fingering weight yarn in the Winterberry colourway. Delicious!
-Enter by posting your intended victim sock pattern & then the finished project on the Ravelry board. Much voting will occur. Oh yes. Much voting indeed.
Recent socks on Ravelry!
We find & comment on a small handful of recently released/published sock patterns on Ravelry. Yum!!
