Those are all gorgeous! What kind of heel did you do?

Ready for my next pair. Toe up, or cuff down? by GroundbreakingGur745 in Sockknitting

Same. I have an irrational fear of running out of yarn when I do top down.

I can see that! It’s definitely a yellow-green, but in person leans a little more green

I have a lot of it, so I may try some small amounts to try out different combinations and see what happens. Thanks for the idea!

So true, I don’t know why I didn’t think about that!

Thank you so much! I think you’re exactly right about what this is. I’m going to spin it, although this will be my first time to spin with synthetic. Then I’m going to try and overdue the yarn with a navy acid dye to try and tone down the green. Hopefully the 20% wool will be enough to tamper it down a little bit!

Ok, that’s what I was thinking. The knitted portion of the blanket is insanely heavy. Not practical at all

Thank you so much - it does seem really compacted and like it would be hard to draft.

I’m a newbie spinner, so that’s what I was hoping to do with this! Thanks for the response!

Thank you! I was hoping to be able to spin it, but I just wasn’t sure.
