Socks for John

A finished pair!

The yarn is Regia 4 ply, the color is one of their Nation colors. This was from deep stash, I bought it for John since he is all about the blue. It’s the same old jerry-rigged vanilla sock pattern I always use. He has weird feet, so I modify the foot shaping to fit him better.

72 stitches, knit on 2.00 mm double pointed needles. I do the heel flap a little longer, and do the gusset decreases a little slower to make it wider around his instep.

That’s my sock cheat sheet.

I really like the Regia sock yarn. It is sturdy, and wears well. This was put up in two separate 50 gram skeins. Each one had one knot, so the stripe sequence was off. This would bug the shit out of me if I bothered to match stripes in socks, but I don’t, so it doesn’t.

These are a win!
