Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 02/08/2025Silly Billy question but when knitting colourwork socks, do I need to buy full skeins of the accent colours as they'll be carried along with the main colour? #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky Does this even make sense 😅 230

Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 18/05/2025My adventures in sock knitting are ongoing, with my third pair of Vanilla Socks 50% complete. This time using Glow Sticks by @dyedinthewoolyarns.bsky.social I feel ready to try another pattern after these, I think. It would be good to learn something new 🧦 #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky 2271
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 20/04/2025Hooray they're finished! 🥳 I realise now my first sock in a pair will be the dodgy / froggy one & the second sock will go quickly & relatively smoothly! 📝 Baby Tube Socks by Haalu the Ugly Bunny 🧶 Indie Sleaze sock yarn by @dyedinthewoolyarns.bsky.social #knitting #knitsky #sockknitting 2201
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 10/04/2025This has taken me an embarrassing amount of attempts & 16 bloody days!!! Must have frogged 🐸 3 or 4 times as well has having to put a few lifelines in & rip back due to mistakes. Thought it would be easy!! But anyway, tube socks 🧦 halfway made, one more to go!! #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky 1110
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 31/03/2025As I'm new to knitting, this is the only baby item I've got for #showmeyourknits but I'm excited to join in at last!! 📝 Baby Tube Socks by Haalu the Ugly Bunny 🧶 Indie Sleaze by @dyedinthewoolyarns.bsky.social #knitting #knitsky #sockknitting #babyknits 2360
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 26/03/2025Okkkkk my second pair of socks is finished 🧦 My tension is a bit looser on the second sock (right), because I put it down & picked it up a lot more than the first sock. Not entirely happy but could be worse. Would blocking help? I don't have sock blockers #knitting #knitsky #sockknitting 3200

Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 15/03/2025I ended up adding an extra stitch to this sock so I tried a decrease but should have known better that it doesn't work like that 😂 So I managed to put a lifeline in & ripped back a few rows. Thankfully didn't lose any stitches. I ❤️ YouTube, a lesson for everything! #knitting #knitsky #sockknitting 2200
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 14/03/2025I'll be in Suffolk next week, anywhere a crafty person should visit while there? We're staying near Lowestoft and have a day in Norwich planned. Any suggestions v. welcome! #Suffolk #Norwich #knitting #knitsky 111
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 14/03/2025Love how this yarn is working up and I feel like my technique has improved since my first pair of socks. I think I'd like to try knitting my next pair with 9" circular needles although the yarn shop lady said they're awkward to hold - any thoughts? #knitting #knitsky 5250
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 27/02/2025I finished crocheting an Elise Shawl yesterday so today I've had a go at blocking it. I think I've done it right?? I had to pin it to a couple of towels on the floor as I don't have blocking boards. Fingers crossed pls! #crochet #crocheting #crochetshawl 190
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Very happy mail 💌 How gorgeous is this?? Glow Sticks sock yarn by @dyedinthewoolyarns.bsky.social Thanks Ellie 😍💖🧦🌈💕🥳 4452
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Sock update 🧦 I'm still on the first sock & working on the heel flap at the mo. Love how this yarn is working up! And yep, that is a loo roll stitch marker 🧻 #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky #knittedsocks 1280
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 21/02/2025This is the first blanket I made after learning to crochet. I think it's 144 squares and took me 9 weeks. I was so proud!! I finished it in Nov 2013. #knitting #crochet #knitsky #grannysquares 1210
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 20/02/2025I bought this 400g ball of yarn years ago & have lost the band. I think it's 25% wool & Aran / Worsted weight. Would this be enough for a beginner knitted jumper? If not, what could I do with this amount? I'd like to use it up by knitting something if poss, rather than crochet #knitting #knitsky 140
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 17/02/2025I've jumped straight into my next pair of socks 🧦 this time using Hobbycraft's Perfect Pair yarn 🧶. I'm still using the Vanilla Sock pattern by the Crazy Sock Lady, but this time I'm doing a 2x2 ribbed cuff instead of 1x1. Love these colours! #knitting #sockknitting #knittedsocks #knitsky 3511
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Day 24 & I've finished my socks! Hooray! 🥳😍🧶🧦🤩🎉 I'm so happy! Sock 1 took me 16 days & sock 2 took me 8 days. I've learnt loads & can't wait to make more and improve! 📝Vanilla Sock by Crazy Sock Lady 🧶 'Indie Sleaze' Sock by Dyed in the Wool Yarns #knitting #sockknitting #knittedsocks #knitsky 1622
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 10/02/2025Day 19 of my first socks 🧦 & I've just finished the cuff of no.2. It has taken me 3 days to do this, I had to 🐸 a couple of times due to dropping stitches, the work falling off the needles, accidentally turning it inside out & not being able to correct it 🙃 but less laddering so onwards & upwards!! 2310
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 08/02/2025Last night was day 16 of sock knitting and I finished my first sock!! 🧦🥳😍🧶💕 Hooray!! It's huge 😂 but I'm so happy! I've cast on the second sock and I'm hopeful it won't take me two weeks this time 😁 They'll make perfect slouchy socks. #knitting #knittedsocks #socknitting #knitsky 1410
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 05/02/202514 days since I started this sock 😁 probably very slow for some but I'm so happy with how it's going and can't wait to get on to sock 2 already! 🧦🥳🧶 #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky 2390
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 02/02/2025Day 11 of making my first sock and I'm on the heel turn, hooray! Really enjoying this process even if I don't get much time to work on it. I'm following a video by The Crazy Sock Lady on YouTube 🧶🧦🥳 #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky 2180
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 28/01/2025Day 6 of knitting my first sock and I can't quite believe I'm actually doing it!!! The leg is going much quicker than the cuff. I love how this yarn is coming out, it's Indie Sleaze by @dyedinthewoolyarns.bsky.social 🧦🧶💖 #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky 6720
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 26/01/2025Day 4 of knitting my first sock 🧦 and I have finished the cuff - yay! 🥳 Showing the front and back so you can see all my wobbly bits #knit #knitting #sockknitting #knitsky 3400
