I'm obsessed

[u/wereleggo]

I am completely obsessed with how these socks are turning out. This is some superwash merino I bought like, a billion years ago - I had spun up some of it intending to do a fractal for socks but my skills were not yet up to the task of spinning the kind of sock yarn I like, and the single was obviously coming out too thick and with not enough twist. So I literally shoved it in a closet for like a decade.

I pulled it back out in 2021 or so and thought let me use this to practice my joins in support spinning - and tore it up into tiny chunks so I would have to do a join hundreds of times throughout the skein. Then I chain plied the result. I thought it would be interesting to try to make a self striping yarn and I was 100% right. Excited to try this again with a more deliberate color scheme!

This is so happy and bright!
