Two pairs of socks finished this week. Neither pair is blocked. The purple and yellow pair is Thesaurus Day – the Knit Spin Farm Little Known Holidays Yarn Club. The pair with white cuffs, heels, and toes is my Cozy Knitter Advent socks 2020 (last year). I tried a true afterthought heel on these, and it was rather thrilling. I think I’ll do it again for socks with a stripe sequence that I’m enamored with.
Your afterthought heel came out so well. I do love all these stripy socks.

I followed Jude from Stranded Dyeworks tutorial, and it was so easy to follow. I think you need to try one next.

It was scary at first, but once I snipped the stitch it was easy peasy.
