I love heavy socks!
They knit up so fast! Nothing fancy for these ones – just a simple 3-1 rib throughout to give them a nice fit. It’s the yarn that really does the work.
This yarn is West Yorkshire Spinners Blue-Faced Leicester Prints. The colourway is Blue Tit… and I think they nailed the colours pretty well.
These will be tucked away for my brother’s December birthday… and I’m onto the next present on the list… check in tomorrow.
You are a quick knitter! I love self-patterning yarn also.

Perfect knit for that little bird. Those socks will be well loved. The white parts offset the pattern so nicely.

Those socks are beautiful and just beg to be worn with jeans. You are rapidly getting items crossed off your project list.

Maybe I need to go back to thick socks? I love hand knit ones, but hate how long they take me to knit them. Cause there’s two!!! LOL
