Scarlett Gloss Socks

I have some new socks to show off today. I finished them last week, but didn’t get around to taking pictures for the blog because I was distracted by the Leftover Blanket and Dallas. (Love that they kept the original Dallas intro!)




The socks were knit from KnitPicksGloss in Scarlett. The yarn is 10% merino wool and 30% silk, and feels great. The pattern is the same faux cable pattern I blogged about back on May 7. It is definitely right up there on my list of favourite patterns. I still marvel at the cables made without a cable needle – fantastic!

Next up, I’m diving into a ball of Noro Silk Garden Sock Yarn. I’ve always wanted to make something from Noro yarn. Since it is 27° out today, I’m thinking maybe I should get to work on a nice warm hat. Why must all the things I enjoy knitting be only suited for winter wear?

    What's wrong with a couple of Noro yarn g-strings undies for summer? Think outside the box woman!!

    I'm sitting here smiling, trying to come up with the appropriate response and I've got nothing. You've done rendered me speechless.
