A skein of pink, purple, and orange ombre yarn. The end is connected to the cuff of a sock on three double-ended needles. Beside it is a lilac-coloured retractable measuring tape and an empty coffee mug. A printed knitting pattern lies underneath.

The Easter Bunny kindly left me this festive-coloured sock yarn, needles, and a pattern. I'm diving in headfirst for my first sock and I haven't made anything more complicated than a cowl before. Wish me luck. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky #sockknitting (brb need more coffee)

Three pairs of hand-knit socks, laid out side by side.

#showmeyourknits #sockknitting L-R First pair. >20 yrs. old. In retirement. Never got a hole. Wildwood yarn. Center-Recent, vanilla pair. Fit very well. Stretchy heel- fiddly, but when done,the foot goes very quickly. And with size 10 feet, it's great. RT-dk wt. Quick knit

A pair of handknit socks in bright blue with yellow-green, pink, and grey stripes. They sit on a wooden desk top next to a skein of the yarn used to knit them.

I don't get too fancy with socks, but I do go for eye-catching sock yarn.

Partially knit sock, down to the heel, in variegated greens, reds, blues and purple.

Finished the heel turn, one of my fav bits of knitting socks 🧶 But next, my least fav: picking up stitches for the gusset. And I simply cannot figure out how to do 2AAT for this part and always end up separating the 2 socks 🫠 #SockKnitting

A pair of handknit socks in bright fruity (pinks, corals, orange, yellow) colors. Knit cuff down, 3x1 rib, heel flap and gusset, slip stitch sole. At a protest against the current regime

My second pair of March socks, today at #NoKings in Bend. A nice turnout! Turns out, people don’t like fascism 🤷‍♀️

A 3 inch length of a cuff down sock in moss green is held in a light colored hand.

The watering this AM took just under 2hrs. Rogue likes to help

I finished AND had just enough juice to coil all five hoses.

After a long nap, I am knitting since it is a laying down afternoon.

Switched patterns for my sock and this one is cuff down.

The leg goes well!

Laying flat on a wooden background: my second cast on for this week. The start of a hand knitted sock with flowers traveling on and around the leg of the sock, just like a garland. The main color is a light dusty purple , the contrast color is a natural (undyed) colored yarn.

It’s the first day of spring here, so there’s no better reason to cast on a flowery pattern.

It’s called ‘Flower Garland Socks’ by Aud Bergo.

Beginning of a hand knitted pair socks with little bunnies 🐰 as motif. Laying flat, beside a ball of yellow yarn and a yellow project back that has a collection of enamel pins on the front of it.

Yellow is one of my favorite colors 😍.
So today‘s snapshot contains a lot of it. Including the beginning of a new sock 🧦.

A knitted sock with needles inserted above & below waste yarn in preparation for knitting an afterthought heel.

Fun with needles: trying a new “scary” #knitting technique, the afterthought sock heel! I originally knit a short row heel & hated both the execution & the result. Wish me luck! 😁🧦 #knitsky #sockknitting

A hand knitted pair of socks knitted from a faded skein set in semi solid olive green shades laying on a wooden background. The fade is called Bean Stem and dyed by Samelin Dyeworks.

The second pair of faded 🧦 using the Bean Stem Mini Fade from Samelin Dyeworks @samelindyeworks.bsky.social .

I didn’t use a ready made pattern, but a stitch dictionary. The knitting stitch is called the broken seed stitch.

It occurs to me that 'sock it to them' is exactly the right phrase to use when they disrespect your #SockKnitting. (Although you'd be in a pickle if the sock slid off the needles as you hurled it ...)

Look, I turned a heel!!
And I'm on the 4th and final page of instructions.
A bit like a #GoodPhD is a done PhD, a #GoodSock will, by bloody determination, be a done sock. (Even if it doesn't fit!)

In the center of the image is a completed blue and peach variegated lacework teapot cozy. On the right is half of a pastel purple sock with a lifted knot stitch pattern still on the needles. In the bottom left corner is the start of an aqua cabled glove still on the needles. In the top left corner is the waistband for a pair of shorts on the needles with a light blue, mint and cream yarn speckled with green, pink and purple marled together. There's a small collection of crystals at the bottom of the image.

Heel flap progress! 🧦
I struggled with purling on the smallest needles I've ever used; the key for me was working in 30-min blocks. Always good to give your hands a break!

Omg I’m so blessed 🥹 I’ve wanted @stoneknits.bsky.social sock books since I first started knitting (her stuff was what actually inspired me to start this craft) and my partner bought me this book! It feels so nice to see my collection of patterns grow 🥹
