Here they are in all their geeky glory!
Pattern: Geek Socks by Wei S. Leong
Yarn: Knit Picks Felici in Lighthouse
Needles: US 1 8 inch circular
Size: 72 stitches
My Geek socks were 50% done last we chatted. I put my try hard pants on and packed this project for a recent road trip. With three solid days of knitting in between chasing Jellybean I finished sock #2.
My geeks are fraternal rather than identical and I love them! I didn’t follow the pattern exactly. The patternwas written cuff down and I modified it for toe up with an afterthought heel. I just used the pattern chart and adapted it to fit my basic vanilla type sock construction.
I highly recommend this pattern. Just make sure to mind your floats! I had to relax and let the yarn relax on my floats so as not to knit a tiny tight tube, lol.
Now I need to cast on more socks! Happy Knitting!!
Nice job!
Thank you
Very cool!
😃
Very pretty!
That’s what I tend to do with socks, too: use my basic vanilla sock pattern & afterthought heel and incorporate a pattern I like into it. Nice to know I’m not the only one with this formula. 🙂
I love your socks! Being fraternal is my favorite thing about them:) I’ll have to add that pattern to my queue.
It’s a really good one!
They look great! I may need to borrow those “try hard” pants this week 🙂
Love them…perhaps I will make a similar pair to this for a friend…I have some blue wool sock yarn that needs to be used, but I want to add some bright pink and make it feminine…some day, when I get my two second socks done…
They look fantastic as fraternal socks! Well done!
Love these socks…so cool! 😃
Beautiful!
Love the socks, simply adorable. 🙂
I looked too quick and thought it said Greek Socks.
