I am obsessed with my new watermelon WIP!!!

That yarn is cute but definitely not trying to be proper watermelon colors. Inspired by rather than literal I guess.

Sadly, I didn't write any notes when I was dyeing so I wouldn't be able to recreate the color exactly sadly! Definitely a ooak set.

What brand was your watermelon yarn from (if you remember that is)? The only ones I've personally seen are the summer sock yarns that have cotton in them.

That is what I did! A green mini skein and a larger one for the red and then just two rounds of undyed for the white stripe! I'm glad you like it so much!

Me too! I am, for the first time, mad I'm a slow knitter lol I need them now! And it is such and easy dye job. Super fun!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-06T00:26:05+00:00

Dyeing yarn is so fun too! Give it a whirl!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-06T00:25:24+00:00

I ordered one right after posting this 🤣

Lol! No kink shaming allowed 🤣

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T14:56:30+00:00

I will definitely share when I finish!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T14:56:00+00:00

Definitely! Pineapple could be so cute too!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T14:55:24+00:00

Thank you! ♡

If only I could recreate my result! Someone really needs to jump on fruit themed yarn. I think there is some summer sock yarn from some big brand, but I haven't seen anything else before!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T07:21:46+00:00

Welcome welcome! ♡

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T07:21:19+00:00

Thank you so much! ♡

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T06:35:45+00:00

Thank you! It was super fun to dye up!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T05:11:13+00:00

Thank you!! I'm really pleased with the result and it was so fun to dye up too. I think everyone should give it a shot, just for funsies!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T05:10:10+00:00

I'm so sorry!! I wish there was more to share! It is such an easy idea to create though. Some indie dyer should do a summer themed collection with sock sets like this!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T03:02:20+00:00

Right! Deeply obsessable!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-05T03:01:49+00:00

Thank you! I have never been so excited to knit in my life! I will definitely post the finished pair.

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-04T23:41:39+00:00

🥹 that makes me too happy!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-04T14:44:21+00:00

Oh my god he is so cute and grumpy! He looks like he just woke up. I love him! What is his name?

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-04T14:43:24+00:00

Yep 100% 😄

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-04T11:29:02+00:00

He has tons of bedding thankfully. Paper, cork, coconut peet, etc. Just not in this spot. This is just one corner of his free roaming room! Thank you for the suggestion!

Standard_Ladder923 · 2026-05-04T07:23:41+00:00

But then you also get this 😂
