I have a special deal for you on an Opal Yarn collection in the Sale Section that gives you the opportunity to try a new technique.... or just knit socks as usual. The Opal Relief 2 collection encourages you to add more flavor to your sock knitting, putting a bit of dimension into the fabric.
You can find videos of what they intend here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7EB0v5hmkVf7lfe3a2b2Aw/videos
Of course, they are in German, but they are close up and detailed and give you an idea of what you can do with these 6 colors if you choose to. Me? I don't need more challenge in my life so I'll be knitting plain ol' stockinette socks with mine. And it's a fab deal at 45% off, so these are perfect to stash for a quick, easy care knit. What else is coming to the Sale Section? More from Mineville Wool Project and Dream in Color in early Feb. And I just added some discontinued Manos colors for 40% off!
Is anyone going to Vogue Knitting Live this weekend in NYC? I'm going for the first time- I've never gone to a VKL or Stitches event, so I thought I might as well go once in my life, and NYC seems like a fun place for Terry and I to see (without kids!). If you want to see a bit of my adventure, just check in on Insta.
Huh, that’s kind of an interesting idea for socks. I am focused on knitting from stash for the next few months but I’m wondering what it would look like to knit the elongated stitch one with a sock yarn I have that’s mostly black and white with splashes of blue. Maybe every blue section on the leg gets an elongated stitch...
