Finally!

Or,

Go Green Bay Packers Socks for Sissie!

I finally finished these last night.

These are knit using the same white bread sock pattern that I always use. The needles are Brittany double points, size 2.00 mm.

The yarn is Artistic Yarn by Abi, in the colors of, you guessed it, the Green Bay Packers. Although while I was knitting this mostly in the Pacific NW, I had a lot of people that assumed that it was for the Oregon Ducks. That works too. I dare you to go through all of her self-striping sock yarn without buying some.

This is lovely yarn, I’ve knit one other pair of socks in her yarn, The yarn is on the lighter side of sock weight, but seems to be wearing well.

These are for my sister, Linda, who is a delusional Packers fan. Abi also makes this yarn, though it’s sold out at the moment (not my fault).

  1. Did you knit these with a nylon thread? I have wondered about using nylon, or wooly nylon for strength with a yarn for strength. I have even considered core spinning with nylon for a stronger sock yarn. Your socks look great!

  2. Oh, they’re fantastic!!! Now when your sister wears them the Packers are bound to be heading for the playoffs this season for sure!!!
