all of this is amazing

I honestly feel #blessed that GG would take time out of her busy schedule to drive me around in my weird dream universe. Like, it was the opposite of an anxiety dream, there was knitting and beautiful views and (large, potentially terrifying) sheep.

I also like verypink's videos for socks. Also, tincanknits has a great sock tutorial online. The pattern for it is Rye, which calls for worsted weight to make a quicker sock. I modified it a bit to use fingering weight yarn for my first socks. Super easy. Mostly stockinette, with a little garter panel. Great for speckled yarn.

When I knit my first sock i used the video tutorials from verypink.com. there are lots of diffrent methodes but I only do cuff down. I didnt even buy the pattern they offer and just eyebald the stitchcount...worked fine for me.

maybe try an afterthought heel? that way you don't have to do any of the uncomfortable heel flap and gusset parts.

Thank you guys! I checked out lots of videos from verypink and they were very helpful. I’m going to attempt a toe up sock with an afterthought heel. Should only take a few months... 😂

OMG, thank you! I love them and I get so frustrated when I see cool patterns go unsourced.

I'll look up the book and update my post!

Woo, new patterns.

Thank you so much for posting about Poldark!! I've been watching it since this morning/after work and it's soooo good. :D

Yesss you must tell me your thoughts about the Demelza/Ross/Elizabeth triangle!! I must say I love Demelza but I am also sympathetic to Ross’s intense feelings for Liz. And Verity is always a delight.

My crack ship is a one-sided George/Ross; I feel like George’s feelings are hella obvious, if toxic.

I’m so glad you like it!
