Zinnia ankle socks


April 2006

These short socks are the result of my first time knitting 2 socks on 2 circular needles. Yarn is Knit Picks Sock Garden (colour: zinnia). I used 2.25mm needles and cast on 64 stitches; plain stockinette heel flap on 32 stitches. The merino Sock Garden is very soft, but is getting pilly after only one wash. Plus, even though I used two balls from the same dye lot, the colours are much more intense in one sock than the other. But whatever -- cute socks.
