Endre's rainbow socks has been done a while. But right now it's to hot to wear woolsocks here in the north :)
We have had 30 C two days in a row - and that's not normal here ;) Too hot for my liking...
I planned to knit them up with matching stripes, but the yarn didn't want to do that and Endre didn't care, so they ended up like this.

I just knew I had to make a pair of stripy socks with the leftovers from Endre's socks.
So I found some grey yarn in my stash and split the Nordlys yarn in two.
I knittd them toe-up so I could use up all the yarn :)

Two lovely pairs of socks. I have to give a toe-up sock a try I get so annoyed with leftover yarn.
ReplyDeleteTwo gorgeous pairs of socks. I think the pair striped with grey are my favourites, the colours work really well

ReplyDeleteWow--86 degrees? I didn't think it ever got that warm in Norway! Way too hot for socks at all.
