This is my first time knitting socks with a handspun yarn... and I love the end result! The color shifts in each sock and the subtle changes in the thickness of the yarn make these interesting to knit, even though the pattern is a straightforward one.
Now to tuck these away in a winter woollies box... I think this Colorado weather might have finally turned into summer!
Lots to share in a future post. Mum has been here for the last month or so, so we've been out and about... I have some blogland catching up to do!
Yarn: Crown Mountain Farms Sock Hop in American Pie
Pattern: Simple Handspun Socks by Simone Van Iderstine - toe up pattern on dpns
(I really liked the simplicity of this pattern to let the sock yarn stand out)
Hope you are well, and have fun plans this Memorial weekend,
