No. 2 Pencil Knit Socks

Look at these fantastic socks!!! I love them, they are my favourite pair that I have knit (and I have made a LOT of socks).


No. 2 Pencil Socks:
Yarn: Yarn Enabler's Fancy Feet in No. 2 Pencil Sock
Needle Size: US 1 (2.25mm) 9" circular needles
Pattern Source:  No. 2 Pencil Socks by Yarn Enabler


I used the toe-up version to make these socks, and knit a Fish Lips Kiss Heel (which I had never done before - but the instructions were clear and gave a beautiful result). I wanted to use up all the yellow yarn, but they were getting too tall and I had to stop before I used it all up. These were very generous skeins of yarn and the final product came out perfect.

    I have been seeing a lot of number two pencil scarves lately. Funny for this to pop up, but very creative!
    Would love if you shared this at our Yarn Fanatic Linky Party - http://eyeloveknots.blogspot.com/2015/01/yarn-fanatic-linky-party-21.html.

    They are really fun. They would make a great gift for a teacher.
