\"Finished<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

So, here’s the thing: I did, in fact, finish these socks late Friday. I wove in the ends and was planning to take a photo and write a post, when I saw a weird discrepancy in the knitting. How had I managed to knit in a section of purls in this stockinette sock?<\/p>\n

And then I realized I hadn’t. These never-worn-before socks had a hole in them.<\/p>\n

\"Hole\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

As I’ve mentioned before<\/a>, I really didn’t enjoy knitting with this yarn, as it had a habit of splitting the ply while I was working. So I don’t know if I did that and accidentally weakened the fiber enough that it snapped while I was knitting further down. Or maybe there was a weak spot in the yarn I ignored. Or maybe a moth got to it — either here or at a warehouse (it was a second, after all). Who really knows? And, really, the why is far less important than the question of how do I fix this problem at this point.<\/p>\n

So, I followed a couple of tutorials, followed one well enough, and came up with this:<\/p>\n

\"No<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Not bad, eh? I mean, particularly because it’s a short color section variable yarn, so I couldn’t get it to match each stitch exactly. Hopefully a bath will make the yarn less scratchy in general and in that patched bit in particular, because I’d hate to give Rudi socks he doesn’t like to wear (even if he did pick out the yarn himself), particularly as a belated Christmas gift.<\/p>\n
