Description

This single-thread blank is machine knitted from soft, fingering-weight, sock yarn made from 75% pure wool and 25% nylon for strength and durability.

I’ve painted the blank in riotous colours that will turn into very colourful socks. Each blank is knitted from 100g (app 420 metres) of yarn – more than enough for a medium-sized pair. Knit directly from the blank, unravelling as you go.

Please note: Although I have used approximately the same number of stitches (60) as you would for a sock, the blank obviously is knitted back and forth in the flat. Your socks, however, will be knitted in the round, so they won’t look exactly like your painted blank.

Knit with 2-2.75mm needles. The yarn is superwash, so you can machine wash in warm or cool water. For best results, air dry flat away from the sun, or cool tumble dry (some shrinkage may occur during tumbling).


The "small" print:
My hand-dyed wools are non-repeatable runs, which means once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. Please hand wash your wool with care. Wool labeled “superwash” you can cold machine wash. I take great care to achieve beautiful results that are lightfast and colourfast, but sometimes there is a tiny amount of colour running out of the wool at first, so wash your item separately.

NOTE:
I take commissions.

Please contact me if you live outside of New Zealand.

I will combine postage when possible.

When choosing colours please keep in mind that not all monitors show colours the same.

If you’re not satisfied with your wool you can return it to me in original condition, i. e. with label attached and at your own cost in exchange for different wool or a refund.

If you’re happy with your wool, please let me know and don’t forget to place feedback.
