I struggle to knit two of anything... So socks are pretty much a no-no. Unless you don't mind mismatched socks! Hence I am pretty chuffed that Sunelle taught me this little trick: knitting 2 socks in the round! Hopefully these little knee length socks will be ready for Liv's 8th birthday in a week....

And how pretty is the effect of this wool?! It's Schachenmayr Regia 4 ply, purchased a Aurthur Bales on a recent leisure trip to Joburg.

TIP.
I've used one bamboo and one steel needle in a round. This was just a fluke, but has made the whole process easier!

Knitting and shibori are both having a trendy moment in the world of DIY. One technique allows you to make unqiuely tailored-to-you accessories. The other allows you to add dimensionality to those fabrics with shaped-resist dyeing and folds. Combine them and you have a one-of-a-kind felting technique by Gina Wilde, textile artist and author of "Shibori Knits: The Art of Exquisite Felted Knits."
