Picture depicts three pairs of handknit socks with different color heels and toes. Pattern is a riff of my First Socks pattern. I knit a sock tube while traveling, and when I finished the sock tube I took it apart and knitted the cuff, toe, and heel on following the instructions for each section. Yarn is King Cake dyed by Republica Unicornia, which came with a contrast color called Plastic Baby Jesus. When I ran out of that, I used a deep purple dyed by Stellar Needlecraft and an unknown skein I am calling Real Baby Jesus.

Remember that sock tube I was knitting? It became three pairs of socks!

The yarn and pattern details are in the photo caption.

A handknit sock tube in the colorway Mardi Gras dyed by Republica Unicornia is wrapped into a spiral. A hand holds it on the left side.

Finished my handknit sock tube! Time to partition this bad boy apart into socks. 🥰
