Making my third pair of Rye socks by Tincan Knits. This pair will be going to a dear friend as a Christmas gift. My knitting mojo has been nonexistent since I finished my Nurtured sweater and then had a bad flare up where I couldn’t even look at a screen, let alone knit. I’m hoping this quick little project will get me going again.

First Rye sock is nearly done, just have to finish the toe.

However, I have been Distracted.

Partner admired my blanky

even though he said it was Crystal Palace colours

which fuckin horrified me

what does the world look like through his eyes?

Anyway, same pattern, aran yarn for a denser knit, only three columns of colour (never wrangling 11 balls of yarn again!), and an intarsia cast on for neater top & bottom edges

charcoal grey and mint green, six rows done, estimated finish date Dec 2027 🤣

SOCK!!!!

Made a sock! (Ok, I need to weave the ends in, but still! Sock!!)

I am so proud!

I used the free Rye Socks-pattern by Tin Can Knits (my download is called Rye Light, they seem to have changed the name since I downloaded it?) which - in combination with this tutorial - was an instruction clear enough to allow me to knit my very first sock with it. (Even if some tutorials on that website are bit confusing for me at first because I knit continental style and the website teaches english.)
