A two-fer

Here are more new things hot off the needles.

Socks! Same old jerry-rigged pattern, size 2.00mm double point needles. The yarn is deep stash Socka wool, I don’t think they even make this any longer. I think it looks like white cupcakes with sprinkles.

That one is a Hitchhiker, not the first I’ve made, and likely not the last. I used a skein of Wollmeise Pure, color Poison #5. The color in the third photo is close to what it really looks like.

I love both, though it is way too hot to wear anything with wool right now.

New things off the needles means one thing: new projects coming!

Stay tuned!

  1. Cool sock yarn with sprinkles. I’m knitting a lot of socks these days, haven’t settled on a new shawl to start yet

  2. Absolutely looks like a cupcake with sprinkles! It would make me smile every time I wear them 😊

  3. Both projects are lovely!

    I went to a wedding once where the inside of the cake looked like those socks. It was yummy too!

  4. Vanilla soft-serve with rainbow sprinkles!! That is my standard order at the ice cream parlor. I have had my eye on the Hitchhiker for a while. Yours is lovely.

  5. I think a hitchhiker will be next up for me. Thanks for reminding me. I have three skeins of Wollmeise that have been neglected.
