A Little Christmas Special for You

A little while ago, another designer I know wondered what would happen if three very different designers decide to collaborate on a sock design?

Magic!  And a lot of fun!

Annina from Artesanitarium Designs, myself and Tanja of Knitted in Switzerland have put together a little Christmas treat for you. 

A Mystery Knit Along for a pair of socks.

Each day from December 1st to December 24th we will be posting small clues on Instagram on one of our accounts.

Want to play along?

You will need:

100 g of fingering weight sock yarn.
US size 1 - 2.5 needles (2.0 - 3mm) to obtain a gauge of  32 sts and 36 rows to 4 inches (10cm)
A cable needle (optional, you can totally knit these without it if you prefer to cable without a cable needle)
Large eyed tapestry needle.

A knowledge of working in the round, basic cables, increases and decreases...but there is nothing too hard, I promise!

How to participate :

Follow each of us on Instagram.

The clues will be posted alternately from each of our accounts so it is crucial that you follow all three of us...but don't worry we will all post which account has the clue on it each day.

(To complete a full pair of socks, work two at a time using your preferred TAAT method.)

The fun starts tomorrow!
