The Pumpkin Spice pattern is live!
Lattes, pies, muffins, tea, hot chocolate, cake, apples… pumpkin spice shows up in everything. The versatile combination of spices is quintessentially autumn, and these socks can are the perfect pairing. Large and small cables dance over an five colour fade, with one colour for each spice: cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and allspice.
I knit mine up with Rose Hill Yarns Cherry Chocolate fade in light fingering weight, which was so soft and smooth! You can also knit these up in a single colour, so you can answer the call of that beautiful fall skein in your stash.
As always, an enormous thank you to my testers! They gave great feedback and knit beautiful socks to help get this pattern ready for release.
You can find the pattern on Ravelry and my website!

And they're done!!

first post about these socks
second post about these socks
What an intensely enjoyable knit! I've never done so much colorwork before, and certainly never with 3 strands! What a challenge, but also highly engaging. These socks felt like they took no time at all! They're also quite soft and pretty darn warm, so I'm very excited to add these to my closet come fall & winter. Thank you to Oakwood Knits for a fantastic sock design!
Like the first attempt, I tracked my daily progress, but I started doing so after I caught up to where I stopped from my first attempt, which took half the time to do this attempt!

These still need to be blocked, and I have a set of sock blockers on the way, but I didn't want to wait to share because I just am so pleased with them. I learned a handful of new things making these, namely continental, to hold the secondary color, and how to better tension strands of color. I knit these both at the same time across two circulars, and the little onion* skeins of Palette actually made it so I could use only one skein at a time for both socks! I did make a little ball for each sock for the third color rows, however. But ultimately, it worked out great. I also did Eye of the Partridge heels and toes, because I know my feet and those are the spots that need the most reinforcing, and I also added in a single row of purls on the top at the toes because I like how it looks on socks.
Bonus: the start of the spring socks, since I missed the KAL for them and was so jazzed by the summer socks I want to knit more!

*I don't know of they're really called onion skeins, but I can't remember if they have an official name and they look like onions to me, so there you go

working on my first ever pair of toe up socks has made me realize I am NOT a fan, but a cool skill to have

I don't know - do you want updates for my sock making journey?
In the first class, we struggled with the clunkiness of DPNS (read: figured out how to hold and manage them in a way that works for us as individuals), and completed the cuff ribbing.
Homework was to complete stockinette until the sock was 6 inches. I went a little too zen, and accidentally did 6 inches just of stockinette. So I might have a bit of a longer leg. Not the worst mistake to make :D

I don't know if you remember my post from a week ago about my knitting misadventure - but I finally did it! The socks are done just in time for christmas. I personally think they look great and more importantly after three tries they finally fit! (My friend with the same shoe size already tried them on)

gay ass socks (part 4)
hello hello! someone reblogged my last post about these socks earlier and it reminded me to post an update! (thank you to anyone who reads these by the way i appreciate it!!!)
Tumblr media
happy to say that the calf increases worked out very well! my measurements were right on, and the stripes are looking a lot better this time around. i'm also past the point i was at before frogging, it's nice to keep making progress now!
you can't see in this photo but the yarn is just starting to transition from this coral-y shade into the true pink, it'll probably be obvious within the next few stripes! i'm gonna keep going with these until they're over my knee before i start the brioche tops, and that'll probably take a little while, but they're getting there!
not sure yet if i want to decrease back down under the knee, but i'll keep them as they are for now. as long as they're not too loose they should be ok
thanks for reading!

Socks for me from Regia.

I always get a little nostalgic for my childhood home at this time of year. Maybe it’s because my birthday is coming up soon, and it’s hard not to reflect on all the bits of life that got me to now. I think that’s why the Glaciers socks will always hold a very special place in my heart. I spent a lot of time in the Rocky Mountains as a kid, and I’m always in awe at their beauty and their snow-capped peaks, even in the midst of summer. And I miss that, a lot. So I’ll be wearing my Glaciers socks today, so I can carry a little bit of home with me, even when I’m on the other side of the country.
(You can find the pattern on Ravelry, my website, or my Ko-fi shop.)

Petal Drop Socks are done! They still need a good blocking but they are so cute & comfy. The pair took me 6 days to finish, the lace pattern is super simple and addictive.

I used one of the variegated yarns i dyed last year and made some cute socks inspired by the Lirika Matoshi strawberry dress that went viral a few years ago. I'm not entirely happy with the pattern but overall I love it.
