Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 03/08/2025Thank you for replying, that's a good idea about the mini skeins but yes I think you're right, surely more is better anyway 😁 010
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 · 18/05/2025I reckon they'd be quite comfy as there's so seams / joins 110
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 18/05/2025That's a good idea! Do you have them each on separate needles? Will look it up! 100
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 18/05/2025Sorry to have taken so long to see this!! They are called the Baby Tube Socks and are on Ravelry by Hilke Buss / Haalu the Ugly Bunny (I think the latter might be the name of the book they're in?) 100
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 · 31/03/2025I'm enjoying them now I've got the hang of the pattern 😁 000
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 · 27/03/2025It has done, when you said maybe one foot was bigger it was a funny thought to me that getting a bigger foot would solve the bigger sock problem 😁 000
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 27/03/2025I haven't noticed one foot is bigger than the other but maybe that's something i can work on? 😂 Will give these a block and see how they look. Thanks for replying 💕 100
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've heard people mention them but didn't realise how simple they were. Here's the video I watched (not sure if links work on here?) youtu.be/ae7pobnLKGQ?...youtu.beKnitting Help - LifelinesYouTube video by VeryPink Knits 110
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 · 15/03/2025Thank you, I appreciate that 💖 I'm going to go for it and see what happens! 010
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 14/03/2025Could I switch to magic loop for the toe? Haven't tried DPNs yet either! 120
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 14/03/2025That's a good point, thanks! I think I'll just have a go 010
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 14/03/2025The green is gorgeous! I mean it's all gorgeous but the green is so good!! 💚 010
Amy J ✨️ @amyknits.bsky.social · 14/03/2025Living life on the edge! And people say knitting isn't an extreme sport!!! 110
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 · 27/02/2025Aww thank you Isabel, I hope to get some nice photos once it's dry, bad lighting in here x 010
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
