I’m making socks this year too! In March, I’m taking an afterthought-heel class using a cranked sock tube—which kind of feels like cheating. But the steeking bit (scream face) and turning the heel (or whatever it’s called!!!) is still a challenge, so it’s cool. There will be time for 100% hand-knit cashmere-blend socks later.
We can make 2024 the year of learning socks! I'm itching to give it all a try right now, but I'm forcing myself to get a couple of these WIPs off my needles first, especially the time-bound ones.
