Week 3 results

Ah, another pair. What a nice feeling of accomplishment.


These are a pair I knit using Dye-namics Yarn, colorway Forest Dreams. This yarn is sport weight, and for reasons I can't remember, I chose size 1 needles. This is a very dense, cozy sock. Too warm for summer, of course, but probably perfect for hiking. The pattern is a derivative of the Railway pattern referenced in Nancy Bush's book Vintage Sock Patterns.
