Hooray, it's a finished project!
You are probably not completely surprised to see it's a pair of socks. 😊
Project: Blueberry Souffle Socks (Ravelry project page)
Pattern: Vanilla Souffle Socks (free pattern - Ravelry link)
Needles: US size 0 and size 1
Yarn: indigo dragonfly Socktabaa, in the colorway Cerealism
Modifications: None
Notes: I can't remember now where I saw this pattern (probably someone showed their FO on a podcast), but I was intrigued by the texture created on the front top of the sock:
Seeing that it was a free pattern, I figured why not give it a try. Well, it's fun to knit, let me tell you! Once you do the first pattern repeat (4 rounds), it's really easy to remember. And since it's only on the front of the sock, you get a "break" with just knitting for half of the round. Because the texture pulls in the sock somewhat, I made the larger size, and it worked out just fine. The pattern is clearly written, and it didn't take me as long to knit them as my Ravelry page might indicate - there were a lot of times when I didn't work on them at all for a few days.
The yarn is deep stash, and though at first glance, it looks like it's just a light blue, there are flecks of dark blue, turquoise, and purple thrown in which also makes the knitting fun.
I highly recommend this pattern, give it a try!
