DK Weight Socks


So here is the truth. I like my DK weight socks. I enjoy wearing them. They are toasty.

I know you all hoot and holler about the greatness of a slipper. (And yes, I have slipper appreciation, so don't get me wrong ...)

But I like these "touch of cashmere" socks. They bring comfort like a warm shower after a winter walk. (not a long shower people, storm or no storm, we're still in a drought out here in Cali)


So thank you everyone for your support in convincing me to see my sock vision through. I'm pleased.

And I'm even more pleased that I've got another ball of this stuff tucked away for later. hehe.

I've just reached the gusset on my peppermint socks and bound off on the body piece of my kid cardigan. I'll progress with the socks, but I think I'll rotate a sweater project and get a coffee cozy or two done.

Oh who am I kidding? I don't know what the heck is next.

    Beautiful! I love my thicker socks to pad around the house in when it gets chilly. I live in my Crocs all year long thanks to my wooly wonders.

    Great looking socks! Thick socks are the best for cold wood floors and chilly winters. Too bad I can't reach through the screen and grab these 'cause my bare feet are freezing here in Maryland :)

    So happy to hear that you are continuing on with your sock journey. Love your DK socks. I am more of a sock wearer than slipper wearer as well. :)

    Nothing is better than hand knit socks on a cold Winter day. Enjoy!

    You sound like me a week ago. I couldn't decide on what to knit from one day to the next! Then I settled in....I do NOT like that unsettled knit feeling one bit.
    Hope you settle soon

    If I had those socks I might just give up my slippers.
    Hugs,
