Ani KeatenI had to start over several times but I am officially halfway through knitting my first sock and learning the magic loop technique. This is a slipper sock in bulky yarn...now to learn the short row heel thing 😬
I did it! Twice! Two slipper socks, my first socks ever. Very happy with how they turned out. 🎉🎉 Just in time for Christmas for the recipient.
Ralph Hogaboom@anikeaten They look AMAZING, nice work!!
@biptoot thank you!!
Michelle / The Giddy Stitcher@anikeaten So squishy! 😍
mino@anikeaten they look so comfy! good job!
Anna Miriamsdochter@anikeaten so squishy!
You can totally do a short row heel. Smart to start with bulky yarn, you’ll have all the techniques down in less than half the time than with fingering weight and it’s much less of a hassle to redo it should you not be entirely happy with your heel the first time.
Fasten Off Yarnalong@anikeaten we love it when participants try new techniques in their FOYAL projects 💜
Karen Strickholm@anikeaten I'm at the same point on my 1st slipper socks! Will post here in a bit. 😊
@KarenStrickholm I can't wait to see!!
