✨✉️squishy mail day! My yarn for my Harvest Flower sweater has arrived!! ✉️✨

I am a bit worried the brown and pink are too close in colour, and may blend together. So I just ordered a lighter pink colour 🤭 this may delay my project, but I’d rather wait and have the perfect colours, than start the project and not be happy with it.

This GORGEOUS yarn is from Arcane Fibre Works and I am sooo excited to use it 😍

✨🧶TSK/TSP Tutorial🧶✨

Knitting patterns sometimes call for TSK (twin stitch knit) and TSP (twin stitch purl) stitches. The socks I am knitting use this technique to shape the heel of the sock. Here is a quick tutorial to help you with these stitches.

💀🧦One ghost face sock done! Another is cast on.
For my first colour work sock, I am soooo happy with how it turned out. It fits great but the pattern is a bit stretched out when worn, so the next socks I make I’ll size up.

Pattern is the silly sock pattern by and I added the ghost face chart with inspiration from pattern

My first pair of socks finished 🧶🧦

This yarn is sooo soft and cozy, I never want to take these off but also terrified of wearing them out haha

I’ve wanted to knit socks for a while now but the process seemed so intimidating. It’s actually way easier than I thought, and I want to make allll the socks now! A reminder to sometimes just jump right in, and you may be surprised by what you can do!
