Calling Sock Knitters

Hi all,

210628983_467e84eda1_m.jpg

I am looking for a few test knitters to try out my sock pattern . It is pretty basic, ribbed with a short row heel. Things seem to make sense on my end, but I need a few more eyes to look at at.  If you are interested leave me a comment and I will get in touch with you on the details. All you need is some sock yarn and an understanding on how to knit socks! Thanks I think I found my knitters!

D had his second set of xrays this week. The doctor sounds really confident that he will not need surgery. He might even be able to walk on it in a few weeks. That made us both very happy clams. He still won't let me knit a cozy for his uncovered toes....

I'll gladly test sock pattern/yarn for you. Have been knitting for over 35 years. Have made 20 pairs of socks this year so far.

I'd also be happy to try out your sock pattern. I'm not quite as experienced as Paula but I'd call myself an intermediate knitter. But then you'd have varied perspectives on the pattern.

Thanks!

I would be happy to knit up the pattern. I have been knitting for just over a year and socks are my favorite thing.

I would love to try it! Is it toe up? I think it's all I know how to do just now. But seriously, I have some tweed type sock yarn that I'm looking for a pattern for.

I would gladly test knit a sock pattern for you. It's the least I could do after the joy that your Turkish cast on tutorial has brought me.

Hey Jo
If you need one more, my needles are sock naked and itching for something new!

The ungrateful brute! Here you are slaving away to make sure he's comfortable, and he won't let you have some fun knitting him a "toe cozy"? The cad!

Hey Jo

I'd love to try your socks if they are easy as I've only knit regular socks..no design. I'm a scaredy cat but secretly want to branch out and try a design. knittery hugs, deb
