Pattern: Popped by Hunter Hammersen<\/a> (I’ll let ya’ll know when the pattern is out.)
\n\"Knit
\nThis pattern is not super stretchy, so you\u2019ll want to try a sock on after one leg chart repeat to make sure you can get it over your heel. Don\u2019t try it on after just the cuff ribbing. That’s a rookie mistake…that I totally made.<\/p>\n

Yarn: Knit Picks Stroll Tonal
\n
These are mostly wool; I can block more room into them. (Please don’t point out that “That’ll block out.” is NOT the voice of reason)<\/p>\n

Colorway: Spring<\/p>\n

I’m not a huge fan of how this yarn feels, given that I like my socks on the softer side, but the colorway got A LOT of compliments and I do love it when people admire my knitting.
\n
Needles: Started with 2.25mm Sig. Arts DPN’s but the yarn was 1% splitty, and the cuff was kind of big, so I switched to 2.0mm wooden needles.
\n\"spring
\n
This is where you realize why I don’t sound more worried. I have a plan.
\n
I know a knitter who is the Jackie Chan of blocking. I knit fine looking socks, and sometimes they go off for a wee vacation and come back looking like movie stars…and if her blocking magic doesn’t fix these puppies, they’ll be sacrificed on the alter of the 100 sock challenge <\/a>without a second thought because as I said, several people were admiring them.<\/p>\n
