Happy #SOCKTOBER knitters 🧦🧶! Surely everyone guessed this week’s theme!? #ShowMeYourKnits week 62: show me your SOCKS!

In honour of the occasion, I am ignoring all other socks in progress & starting a fancy pair of colourwork/ cable socks for myself 💅! Seward Socks by Caitlin Hunter in Exmoor Sock

About 1.5 inches of 1x1 ribbed cuff of a hand knit sock in green wool. The unknit balls of green and light grey yarn are next to it, along with an unwound skein of dusty pink yarn.

Happy Socktober #ShowMeYourKnits pals! Here’s a peek into my sock drawer… in a far more organized state than usual… 😂 🧶🧦

A drawer filled with handknit socks in a variety of bright colors and textures, including pink, green, red, blue, and yellow pairs. Several cedar blocks labeled “Cedar Green” are nestled among the socks.

So, I have kitchener memorized because I've done it hundreds of times, but I'm wondering if anyone knows a cute rhyme or anything to go with it that can help beginners? 🧦

A purple lace sock in progress, stretched over a decorative wooden sock blocker with a heart cutout. The yarn is variegated in shades of violet, teal, and blue. The sock features an intricate lace pattern and is being worked on double-pointed needles.

Lol! Yes! The struggle is real!

Pepper @pepperknits.com · 15d

Omg. So relatable!! I got a coupon for free shipping at KnitPicks and went down a huge rabbit hole adding tons of stuff to my cart. Then realized I would have gotten free shipping regardless because I met the threshold. One hour later I was so annoyed with myself that I bought nothing! lol!

Pepper @pepperknits.com · 15d

I took this photo a while back and have been waiting for the perfect moment to post! Loved the prompt!!

Pepper @pepperknits.com · 15d

So cute! *runs off to start knitting tiny window cats*

A quote for #ShowMeYourKnits Care Week:

"We are hungry for things that have touched human hands."

Sometimes I knit for myself. Sometimes for someone I love. Sometimes I donate my knits to someone I’ll never meet. Handmade things carry the kind of love and care we all need as humans. 🧶❤️🧵

An open book rests on a golden lace knit background. The visible quote at the top of the page reads, “We are hungry for things that have touched human hands.” – Faith Popcorn. The text below is not fully visible but discusses why we spend money on yarn and so many hours knitting a sweater we could buy at a store for $20. It is a page from the book "At Knit's End" by Stephanie McPhee (The Yarn Harlot).
