A pair of #handknit socks in purple-blue.  They are held at the top of the photo by a hand with no view of the person holding it; the background is a vertical garden stand with some pepper plants, and lots of green leafy lettuce visible. This #knitting pattern is Pretty Privilege by Anna Zhuravleva and the yarn is Araucania Yarns Ranco Solid, colorway 115. #knitsky

I finished my socks, earning the penultimate spot in my team. I’m moving on to the next round. That may be my finale as this group has a lot of fast knitters! 🧶 I love all the cables here & the hint of lace in the gusset (the triangle where the sock expands to get over one’s ankle). 💜 #sockmadness

I have finished the first sock of round two for #sockmadness and need to get the second one done before the deadline. This sock required less yardage than the last so I’m hopeful about finishing in time to qualify for advancing to the next round. #knitsky #knitting🧶

A photo of a purple-blue #handknit sock on a beige carpet background.  The left foot is modeling the cabled sock. Pattern is Pretty Privilege by Anna Zhuravleva.  Need to find the ball band to identify the sock yarn. I remember the colorway is 115, but I don’t often knit with this yarn and found it in stash.  It was a smaller meterage/yardage for the 100 grams.  One sock is 37 grams.

A pair of light blue socks that were #handknit with multicolored blue beads.  The beads were shades of sea glass, so took them to the beach on a family day.  Knitpicks stroll yarn used; pattern is listed in previous photos. #knit #knitting 🧶

Other features of this photo are a faux leather bag that is used to prop the socks up and they are on royal blue sock blockers.  The background of this photo is sand, just lots of sand on the beach - no water is coming near these socks until I weave in all the ends on the inside!

My completed #sockmadness socks for round one. I’m sore my family was really glad to have them finished too - well, except for the ends as each strand has one to two ends where it was inserted or finished off. After those are woven in, finally it will get a soak in water and blocking. 🧦

Finished and approved last night! Very pleased with how these turned out. How does one wash beaded socks? I have so many ends to weave in…! #quasarsocks #knitsky #showmeyourknits #knitting #yarn #sockmadness #raimboweverything

A photograph of a #handknit sock in a foot.  The toe is oriented to the top of the photo and the ankle is showing. This #knit sock is in shades of patina green on a winter wonderland blue base.  The beads are multicolored green and blue, with pairs in each section of the rays, which extend from the midline and diagonally to the outside on a downward trajectory. #knitsky #knitting 🧶 pattern and yarn info in previous photo that is in this thread. Thank you.

I’ve made some progress as the gusset is now completed for this one. Next will be the heel flap and it’s a rather short cuff so I look forward to finishing so I can cast on the second sock of the pair. 🧶 #sockmadness

A photograph of a single sock that is being knit on metal double pointed needles. The sock is oriented with the toe down and the needles at the top of the photograph.  The colors are a pale wonderland heather blue yarn with a patina green overlay of yarn and the green yarn has mixed blue and green seed beads interspersed in a ray pattern.  The beads begin in the middle and expand outward on an upward diagonal.  #knitsky #knitting

The #yarn is Knitpicks stroll and the seed beads are size 8/0.  The pattern is written by  Carolyn Lisle.

These are my round one #sockmadness Quasar socks . Yarn management is the biggest issue with so many strands, but it’s lovely to #knit. I wanted to use sea glass colors and have placed the beads on in random order after stringing them on to superfloss. 🧶

I finished this morning and was pleased to be notified that I qualified for a team this year. I’ve been in #sockmadness competitions since round 8. Slow but steady creates new #socks. I don’t care about winning so much as making new friend, learning new techniques and getting support in the SALs. 🧦

And I have qualified for my EIGHTH sock madness! That number blew my mind this morning. My first one was like my seventh pair of socks ever and now I can’t even keep track of how many I’ve made. Here is to another great #sockmadness year! #handknitting #sockknitting

This year's #sockmadness (speed knitting contest) qualifier. My diseased hands are not cooperating though so I'm not sure if I'll try to compete. I'll at least knit along quietly. I enjoy #knitting slowly anyway.

Look, more #knit #sockmadness socks. These warmup socks were on the needles when the qualifying pattern was sent. Wanted to finish foot & the toe grafting before casting on the second of the qualifying pair. These were my socks on the go with some stitches here and there when I had waiting time.
