Hurray, my weathly socks are done! Granted, they look more autumnal than spring-like, but to be fair that is exactly what the weather is doing as well. So ACTUALLY, they are super seasonal and this was obviously very intentional.
Pattern: Wheatly socks by Kerri Blumer
Yarn: Spun Right Round sock yarn in the Bug Jar colourway
Each of these socks were actually knit up super fast individually, for some reason there was just some massive gap between making them. But, if you are looking for a textured sock pattern that is interesting to make, while still having a super simple to memorise repeat, then these are definitely the socks for you. It would take me a couple of repeats to remember the pattern and then I’d basically go through the sock in no time.
This is already the third pair of socks I’ve made with Spun Right Round yarn (previous pairs include the super fabulous
Prairie Spring and
Vinnland socks) and it just never disappoints. There’s always a perfect balance between colours, and each skein I got almost literally spoke to me. This might make me sound mad, but these skeins knew exactly what sort of socks they wanted to become, and I was just following their command. The yarn is really soft, but I can tell you from my previous socks that they stand the test of time fantastically (both when it comes to colour and wear).
And now I am about to cast on some crazy colourful summer socks, because surely the weather will get inspired by that and follow suit!
I am really in love with those socks. Every time they have popped up on your blog, I go looking at Spun Right Round yarns all over again. I’m not sure how much longer my stash will be without a skein of that gorgeous yarn.
These socks look so good! I love this pattern so much, and I’m super loving the yarn you used!
These are gorgeous! Definitely adding that pattern to my queue.
So pretty! Love the colorway and pattern. You got me hooked on Spun Right Round a few years ago. Now she’s one of my favorite indie dyers.
As always, your sock knitting is inspiring! I have to come back to my second pair!
