Update Humility Socks

Washed and dried the Humility Socks today to see if what was said about the ladders was true. YIPPEE, no ladders, they look great.. umm, but boy, is that a lot of bloom! Curious now to how well they will hold up.

Humility Socks


I have to call these socks, my humility socks. Was doing so well... did not understand why people have trouble with ladders~till now. Try as I might, it has ladders. Maybe it will bloom enough to hide them?

Yarn-2 50 gram skeins JL Vinca in colorways 548 (Note: No definite repeat, both skeins also had different color schemes)
Pattern-Used the Queen Kahuna method with a 3-peat basketweave leg.
2.25 needles, 72 stitches, 13 RPI, 10 SPI

The yarn is has a lot of very thick spots where it was spun tightly, it is horribly splitty... but I would use it again.

In Memory of Joshua Farnsworth

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbean
And for a brief moment its glory and beauty
belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

You are missed every single day!
