Holiday Sock Plans!
If your holiday knitting plans include knitting up a quick pair of socks, you might wanna grab a skein of West Yorkshire Spinners 4-ply in Nutcracker -- it has a teensy bit of sparkle in it. Christmas sparkle, not disco sparkle, but...potato/potahto!
Shop West Yorkshire Spinners 4-ply HERE! One is plenty for a pair of socks; if you like a contrasting cuff for the heel and toe, grab a skein of coordinating solid Juniper; it's a perfect match! Looking for a pattern? We like THIS ONE!
While we don't (yet) have a finished sample of Universal's Deluxe Stripes in Poinsettia (lower photo), we do love it for holiday knitting! Just look at those right-on-point shades of holiday red and green!
This one is perfect for worsted weight socks and it works up quickly. Find it HERE and use it with your favorite sock pattern...we like THIS ONE! You'll need two skeins to complete one pair of adult socks.
