My typical toe-up, heel flap recipe worked over 60 stitches. The yarn was wonderful to work with, and I am enamored with the roundness of a 3-ply handspun. This yarn was lots of work to create, I am sure, but it is lovely.
I am so glad that I have two more skeins of Knittin’ Pretty handspun waiting in the wings. Green Grass is a 2ply merino/tencel sock weight, and Easter is a 2ply sport weight merino.
YAY! I am so glad you like the yarn :)
Your socks are lovely. I love seeing what my yarns grow up to become. I can’t wait to see what you make with the other two skeins! Happy knitting!

Just beautiful. I love the colors & they look very rustic & comfortable :D
I am so glad I found your blog! Gorgeous socks … I am trying to get good enough with my spinning to spin sock yarn.
Great socks - really like the colors of your other skeins, too :O)
