Juta's Stockings

A surprisingly quick, easy and interesting knit.

Juta Folk Knitting in Estonia by Nancy Bush Cygnet 4 ply 1 3.00mm for cast-on 220m/50g John Lewis Lilac and oddments of blue heather N/A 75%wool 25% nylon To fit US women's size 7 10 Oct 2007 16 Oct 2007 None Mom

An economical knit, since the cygnet is a mid-price yarn and I only needed 1 ball since I had some oddments to use for the heels and toe.

These are part of the 7 pairs of socks that I'm making my mom for christmas this year.



Project Notes

1. Although I weighed the yarn before dividing, I botched it since sock #2 was 6 rows (1 repeat) shorter than sock #1.

I'm still fighting the desire to rip the first sock for the sake of symmetry.
