My Accidental Travel Socks have officially reached the toe.
I would like to say that I carefully did math and made sure I had enough tube for both foot and leg. But that would be a bald faced lie. I knit the tube until I couldn’t stand it anymore and then knit up the tandem sock to match. I did measure and the tube is 14 inches so I’m probably okay.
I am pleased at how well the stripes matched up. I did intentionally try to do that but I was worried because the cuffs were slightly different from the beginning. I’m guessing that one sock is every so slightly shorter/longer than the other one because of the different initial yellow stripe difference. But I don’t care….if you are that close to my foot to notice then you deserve a kick to the schnoz. These are sparkly and just my everything right now!
Happy Knitting!!
Do tube socks like these really fit well?
Not in my experience for people other than small children. I’ll be cutting in afterthought heels after I do the toes. So they won’t end up being tube socks.
That sounds interesting 🙂
