Notes

Had to cast on another pair because I needed a mobile project! I decided to use my own yarn in my FAVORITE color, Dream Motif!

I’ll be dyeing more of it this weekend for my next shop update since this yarn sold out on the day I posted it.

Like my last pair, I’m knitting these on size 2 needles because my gauge is naturally very tight. For the heel and arch, I’m using size 3 needles, which keeps the tension similar to the stockinette portions during colorwork since stranding makes the stitches very tight. I recommend this technique on all stranded colorwork, by the way!

Finished sock #1, and am really loving this colorway. It has soft blue pooling that looks like fog swirling amongst the other dreamy colors. I’m quite proud of what I’ve dyed.
