Foxy Sky Beach socks
I changed the Sky architecture to be toe-up, and that was a little more difficult!

knit turned hem flat, then joined in the round with helix knitting technique. steeked and made a steek sandwich for the side borders. border uses idea from the book “Crochet Kaleidoscope” motif #15.
Started for zk2020 at home. Knitting in laceweight and will make it larger than the pattern written.
Knit on these over the thanksgiving trip, a few knit nights, and I’m just still not feeling it. Ripping to reuse the yarn for a baby sweater I think. 11/20: ripped again and cast on again, this time doing the chart not upside down; better but yarn striping isn’t showing things off to full effect….
I wanted some basic slippers. Sarah admired my library slippers with the fuzzy top and the padding in the bottom, so I wanted those to be elements of these socks too. I did short row toes and heels similar to Knitty’s Twinkle toes and then added eyelets so a piece of yarn could be woven…
I think I used all this yarn. I don’t know exact dates, but I didn’t finish them before holiday trip. how was this not in my projects yet?!!
Started May 13 or 14th. Similar to my craft bag, but with some ribbony yarn carried along side. The small bag is all ribbon, and the large bag has ribbon stripes.
