Catching up on my backlog of posting, these neon shorty socks were knitted last year and have been in rotation ever since.
The pattern is @summer.lee.knits Shorty sock pattern set, I used the fade without the fade as I wasn’t quite at that skill point in my knitting.
I love the shorter length, makes knitting seem even faster but with wear I’ve been regretting they are quite this short. I’m notorious for my shoes eating my socks. That’s happened a few times with these ones and it ruins the rib along the top.
Note for next pairs be sure to make them a fraction taller and tighter so they move around less on my foot. I’m making progress with closing up the toe, I still have to watch the video and set up one stitch at a time and not be interrupted but it’s looking slightly neater and has no holes.
On this pair I feel like I was finally getting the hang of knitting the rib in the round, though trying to count the neon yarn nearly sent me blind, it is bright!
