First a big Thank you! I’m truly grateful for all of you who take the time to read my blog and a extra thanks to those who leave comments. I do love to hear from you. One of my goals this year is to post at least once a week. Fingers crossed that I reach that each and every week! More on that on a later day…
…on to the post!
I finally finished the first Broken Seed Stitch sock! I powered through on New Year’s Day and grafted the toe together on January 2nd. I need to have daylight to do that when working with a dark yarn.
This is the “good” side. The blue is more prominent for some reason.
And this is the not-so-good side. That line is where the colors change. This side has more yellow and green.
I really like both the plain stockinette sole as well as the textured stitches on the foot section.
It looks like I might need to tighten up the stitches on the gusset as those bright yellow stitches seem so big! Or maybe I’ll just give them a good soak and blocking when I finish sock #2. I’m going to try to tighten the first few stitches on the color change rows to see if that helps make that seam less noticeable.
Sock #2 is already on the needles with the ribbing completed and the first 4-row pattern repeat finished. Here’s hoping the second sock will make this a pair before the end of the month.

I love how those came out! I like the almost fish scale look of the textured part with that color.

I never thought I would use that hand dyed yarn in anything as it was so bright. I’m loving the finished product, too! Knitting onwards! 🧶
