I’ve just ordered some more Tofutsies yarn in a red/white colourway from Angel Yarns because it was on sale so only £9 a ball and as I demonstrated last week it will make more than a pair of socks. I’ve also ordered some Brittany birch 2.5mm dpns because being quite a new knitter I haven’t acquired lots of sets of dpns yet so I thought it was time I got a second set so I can have more than one sock on the needles at once.
I’ve also had a play with Grumperina’s Jaywalker pattern so that I can knit the same zig zag as her pattern but in a toe up sock as I much prefer knitting toe up to top down. I’ve decided to do a short zigzag that spans 13 stitches (the original is across 19 stitches) and therefore it’ll be 52 stitches round and the Widdershins pattern is 54 stitches so it should work out fine. I’m hoping that the zig zag will look nice with the striping of the Lana Grossa cotton sock yarn that I bought at Get Knitted.
