Hello friends! Over the past couple of months I have been practising my spindle spinning skills. Starting on July 23rd (so, 2 days after Tour de Fleece) I have started counting down the days to Halloween (so, 100 days) by making support spindle spun sock yarn. I spun two bits of fiber by regenbogenwolle, one of unknown provenance, and the other one a blend of polwarth and milk protein fiber. The purple and green look like a spooky combination of yarns to me. In last week's video we finished the yarn, so now it is time to start knitting the pair of socks! The socks I'll be making are the Little bit of Hocupocus socks by This Handmade Life (see infra). I'll be knitting them on double pointed needles, and will in the end decide not to knit a perfect symmetrical pair. (Who would have guessed I went with chaos?) What a great pair for socktober :) The pattern: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/a-little-hocus-pocus-socks If you want to join in on the chaos, you can join the patreon via: https://www.patreon.com/MijnWolden You can also find me on Ravelry and Instagram as @MijnWolden If you enjoy spinning, yarn, knitting, fiber arts or any other traditional craft and fiber shenanigans then this channel is right up your alley.
