What a fun, fast knitting project! Love my new comfy, bright, soft ankle socks.

The second sock went much faster than the first. I was able to count the stripes on the first sock as I made the second one, making it much easier to measure.

They match perfectly!

I did make a small change to the design. Instead of a rolled cuff, I did 5 rows of knit 1, purl 1 ribbing. The cotton blend yarn I’m using doesn’t have a lot of stretch to it, so the ribbing helps to hold the sock on my foot. If it stretches out too much with wearing, I will sew some rows of elastic thread all around the inside of the cuff. Works like a charm!
Such a nice pair of bright, colorful ankle socks. And I made them myself…..thanks to the Bernat yarn and pattern. Awesome!

Are you referring to Soft Blue?
It’s still available. Make sure you look all the colors on the website.
