I used my entire skein of Neighborhood Fiber Co. Studio Sport yarn in the Mount Pleasant colorway and then had to resort to leftover Woolarina yarn from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spritewrites.net\/?p=696\">socks I knit in 2006<\/a>. I like that a) I recognized before I began the toes of sock #1 that I was likely to run out of yarn and so waited to knit the toes for both socks until the end and b) I was able to find another local yarn dyer to use for the toes, keeping these socks truly D.C. based. (Interestingly, I first encountered <a href=\"http:\/\/www.woolarina.com\/shop\/index.php?crn=206\">Woolarina<\/a> yarn at the Mount Pleasant Festival. I had forgotten that fact until just now&#8230; Eerily appropriate, no?)<\/p>\n<p>The pattern was well-written, but there was some well-documented disconnect between the needle size and the number of stitches you were instructed to cast on. Ultimately, I worked my socks on 52 stitches using 3.5mm needles.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/spriteshoots\/4773281675\/\" title=\"Crusoes by kkfea, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4093\/4773281675_24c5b9e18e.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Crusoes\"><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Just last week I was wearing an outfit (neon blue skirt and black tshirt with pink hair elastics) that, had it not been 95 degrees outside would have gone great with these socks.
