METHODS/Techniques

  • Two-handed color work (continental / English)

    • Brown and organge = left hand

  • Only used embroidery for the eyes and not the mouth to maintain the stretchiness of the fabric as it stretches over the foot and ankle

  • For the second sock, I used US 1.5 (2.5mm) for the pumpkin color work

  • For both socks, I used US 1 (2.25mm) for any color work rows

TNT

No. I only need so many Halloween socks, but I enjoyed the final product.

Make Again

Yes.

Things I’d do differently next time

  • Make the sock toe up versus cuff down.

  • Tighten up my stitches
