I had a budget meeting last week and a school building committee this week and…
Wednesdays Are For Knitting: Striped Socks
I know you were probably hoping for photos of my Stopover sweater today. You all know how that goes, though, right? It involves finding a time when there’s light and good weather and a photographer – something that isn’t easy to do – but it will get done, I promise. For today, though, can I distract you with some pretty striped socks?
I absolutely adore these. The colors are so pretty and the yarn (Jawoll Superwash) wears like iron.
I made the legs extra long just because I could. And because I like a tall sock.
The stripes are completely misaligned and I don’t even care because they change so often and the colors are just so rich. And also because I was too lazy to try and match them.
You can bet I will be wearing these – along with Stopover – this weekend at . . . wait for it . . . SPA!

I NEED that yarn! Socks are gorgeous – hope to see you at SPA ?
I really like these! The frequent changes in striping is great. I don’t recall seeing such narrow color changes ~ love!
Ooo, I like these a lot! How fun.
Your socks are the perfect bright antidote to this cold, gray day, plus you’ve got new socks and a sweater for SPA!
LOVE those stripes. Happy feet, for sure. 🙂
Envious of your SPA weekend coming up. Wish I could sneak out there and join y’all.
Those socks are glorious! You can’t help but smile while looking at them. Have a great time at SPA!
I love how the stripes aren’t all even, which sort of makes the lack of matchy-matchy even better. Enjoy your new socks, and your weekend adventures.
Envious you’ll be at SPA and that you have new hand knits to wear! How wonderful!!! Love the colorful socks and even more that they don’t match up perfectly.
I love those happy socks, especially since they are the same but not! I am also envious of SPA, but I know you will have a great time!
Those socks are so happy! Is the yarn a single-ply? Do you happen to know which colorway you used?
Nevermind, I just looked it up on Ravelry :).
These are extradinary socks and I love that even folks who are #+€# enough to line up the stripes don’t have to worry.
Pretty socks! Looking forward to seeing your Stopover. Oh, hey, I need to make an FO blog post for mine!
Such ‘happy’, fun socks! Quick question for you since you said you made them extra long. How many inches from the top to the heel flap did you knit yours? Can’t wait to see them with your Stopover sweater!!
Those socks are adorable. I love the bright stripes. They’re just perfect for a winter pick-me-up.
Who needs them to match? They look amazing. I was hoping for Stopover pics too. I know the struggle of finding time/light, etc… Maybe we can take some pics this weekend?
Happy, happy socks! I am with you on long socks. No drafts on our legs!
Did I miss the name of the sock pattern?
super fun! both the socks and your SPA weekend. and I love the crazy mis-matched stripes. adds to the fun, I think.
