Some of the orders I have done

I have not posted on here much is some of the socks I have done for orders 
I even done a custom style one in that the lady has badly swollen legs so the rib no matter how large a size or loose i did the rib still wasn't enough
So came up with the idea if instead of doing on the round using DPs i did the rib on straight needles still using a larger size then when rib done change to DPs then knit on the round as normal so there is an opening on the rib the lady said they were perfect
All the socks are done in 4 ply yarn

I just finished this pair of socks for a lady who had socks from me before & really liked them.
I used Online 4 ply yarn Fancy Colour Range number 1347 I think the picture of the colours show them a bit brighter than they are in true life while my photo is a bit darker may be when the lady receives them she will comment to say what she thinks

Silk Socks


I just finished some socks for me I used the Online yarn that I get from Germany, it a 4 ply yarn
Here are the colours that the range do




As you see from the socks below I knitted them using the bottom left hand side yarn which is 108
The yarn is 55% Merino 20% Silk & 25% Polyamide using this type of yarn with silk in I do tend to find that I can get away with a size smaller & less rows as after a little wear they do stretch a little 
If anyone wishes to order some socks please do get in touch as you may see from previous post I do take orders so contact me for more details & price
