Hey there! While I have been staying on track with my 2024 Solo Sock Club, I have not been the greatest at writing my posts about it. We are only a brief 3 weeks into June, and I am finally revealing the socks and pattern for my June bag. The yarn for June did not have a label when I rescued it from its deep stash prison. Generally, I feel rather confident that I can sleuth it out, as I tend to know where I shopped and then can poke around on Ravelry and explore which yarns have how many plies and match up fiber content with what I have in hand. Unfortuantely, this one will remain a mystery yarn, because I simply couldn't sort it out. It's quite lovely, though...
Once again, I dove right in to knitting the socks before taking a photo of the yarn in the hank. I believe this is a wool blend, and I think it also contains silk. It is smooth with a bit of shine. It is somewhat dense, and not bouncy or stretchy at all. The colors are shades of a dusky purple and gray. It looks amazing. I just knew a yarn this fancy needed a pattern to match.
The pattern I chose is one that has been in my Ravelry queue since December 26, 2012. That's over 11 years! Finally,
Cecilia has been paroled from the pattern purgatory that is my Ravelry queue. Chalk it up to another perk of the self-curated sock club.
I am happily underway on the Celcilia socks, even though I am posting quite late in the month. Be sure to come back to see what they look like once they're finished.
