Tadaah!
In the holidays I did my first experiments with yarn blanks. I sent the yarn to my sister who knitted some sock samples for me and here they are!
Two examples of the very cool effects you can get when dyeing blanks. The blank was double thread which means you get identical socks! And as you can see, 100grams is enough for a pair of socks and you can make them longer if you like.
Pretty neat, eh?
Stay tuned for my next dye lot, this time it's 100% BFL sock yarn and it came out just amazing!! I'm winding it up now and will post photos very soon.

Stripes for tiny feet
Remember Alice's funky, stripy socks a few posts ago?
She has now used some leftover yarn to make the cutest little baby socks!
Both pairs from one skein of Happy-go-knitty self-striping BFL sock yarn.
Babies can have colourful stripy socks too!
