Finished socks…

September 26th, 2007 · No Comments · Finished Objects

I have two to display – first, the Tofutsies socks:

I love wearing them, but the gauge is too loose. Not only will I never actively choose to knit socks on bamboo needles again, but I will also avoid ever using 2.75mm needles for fingering weight yarn. Too loose, much too loose.

And also the Sockatta Socks:

I’m dissatisfied with these socks for a few reasons. I had intended them to match, until I saw the giant blocks of colour that plague this particular yarn. I’d have had to waste so much of it to get them to match. Second, the aforementioned big blocks of colour were not anything I expected. They look silly. They fit, fortunately…and are very comfortable to wear. I may try this yarn again if I can avoid chunky repeats and possibly find something more solid/multi-tonal.
