Oh, these were real fun to knit!
I will dig through for other scraps of handspun! I weighed the yarn and knew I had enough for shorty socks and I ended up with maybe two yards left over-not bad figuring!
I think I stated the wrong number of stitches the other day;
there are 48 stitches using a #5 needle throughout
with short row heels.
A very satisfying knit and they are nice and toasty!
So cozy! And right now we are hanging on to winter too long, so much needed up here.
ReplyDeleteThey look great!!! It always makes me feel good to find a use for all this handspun. With the TdF and the MDSW right around the corner, I really need to de-stash.
ReplyDeleteNice! You sure finished those socks quickly! I need to do some short row heels......
ReplyDeleteCozy socks to wear around the house.
ReplyDeleteI like those a lot. I don't care much for short row and usually do the eye of partridge heel. Are you back home now?
