I almost gave up on color-work socks! I was knitting magic loop and going across “the corner” was a nightmare. Using a 9” circular was game changing. Thank you, thank you!

@DelphineSerenity 6 месяцев назад

Yesss same! The end of each 'half' of the sock was a nightmare 😅 9inch is so much easier!

@SandraSavoie-g8q Год назад

OMG, thank you for being a “dropper and picker upper”! I was convinced I was going to be a 1 color knitter for the rest of my life! I’ve watched so many videos where it seemed soooo confusing 😩 I’m running out and getting my 9” circular needles 🧶

Thank you, thank you! You have taken the mystery and fear out of adding color to my socks. I love your video, very clear and concise. I love that you didn’t speed through your knitting. I want to see as much from you as is available. I’m excited to try color in socks. Thank you so much!

Should I use 2.5 mm or 2.75 mm needles for the colorwork? The Addis 9 inch circulars come in 2.5 mm and the Chiaogoo 10 inch circulars come in 2.75 mm. Is it going to matter which ones we use?

@jennycastro 3 года назад

I love my Chiaogoo Interchangeable Minis for sock knitting! They come in 3" and 2" sizes, so I use a 3" one on the right and smaller 2" on the left. It is way easier than DPNs ☺️

What is the name of the set you bought? I'm looking for some interchangeable sock circulars

@patriciachianelli7507 3 года назад

I'm thrower and you make it seem easier than I thought it would be. So I will try your method. Thank you.

Summer...Summer...Summer....what would we do without you? lol. You are amazing. Thank you for these little tips and tricks videos. They help so very much!

Thanks for sharing, when I watch your videos I get a boost if confidence in my sock knitting. I haven't tried color work, however after watching your tutorials I feel I can do it. Have a wonderful weekend blessings to you and your family.

@raemartin300 3 года назад

Thanks for this great video! Know I understand why my 60 stitch color work sock doesn't fit like I thought it would. Also I am your #1 fan, but I am probably not the only one. 😂 I can't wait to knit every single one of your socks! Keep 'em coming!

Thank you for this video. I just ordered the Addi needles to try. I didn’t know about them. I look forward to trying your patterns and my first pair of color work socks!

@ccam504 2 года назад

so glad I found these instructions

I like your podcast video thank you

@dianalabrie6571 3 года назад

Thank you for this excellent video! I especially like your tips for catching floats while knitting magic loop. Very helpful!

@Katepwe 3 месяца назад

This is fantastic!

@annotlewski1104 Год назад

Good info but how do you handle long floats ( 10-11 sts) in socks? Catching floats really reduces stretch!

@clairerobinson6571 3 года назад

Such gorgeous socks...and you make knitting them seem so doable! Thank you so

@bonniestull1982 3 года назад

I love your patterns and your helpful videos. Thank you

@blacksunshine5758 3 года назад

Just beautiful socks!

@MilknHoneyHomestead 2 года назад

What type of yarn do you tend to use for your socks? Do you prefer wool over acrylic, I have knit using acrylic and wool and I think wool looks better but I really like the softness and the squishiness of the acrylic. I would like to know your opinion, I have spent so much on buying wool blends, and I love them but I do enjoy some of the acrylic blends.

@danishsierra 2 года назад

Thanks for this video! I just bought your Little Dots pattern and was having difficulties with the floats at the start and end of the round, with Magic Loop. I will try the Addi Sock Needles, but can you tell me if you use the longer of the needles in your right or left hand? Perhaps it doesn’t matter? Thanks again for the great video! Mary Ann XX

@SparkyJoon 6 месяцев назад

In the demo the larger needle is in the right hand and shorter in the left.

@dlbc82 3 года назад

Summer, do you know if ladders become more of a problem if you have the wrong size needle for the yarn ply or thickness..? I’ve not knitted more than 4 socks in my life time, and only thick yarn...so having an issue now

Question: I’m currently knitting a colourwork/fairisle cowl, and I’ve done all of the fair isle chart rows. I reached the last 2 rows, and these rows ask for me to knit a plain stockinette in the background colour, so I went ahead and chopped off my other pattern colour. But I’m confused about gauge. Stockinette’s gauge is different to stranded colourwork; stockinette rows tends be wider than stranded colourwork rows. So If I use the same size needle, wouldn’t I end up with a project that became wider? Help please! *In a nutshell, how do I switch from fair isle to plain stockinette in the same project?*

Hi ‼️ what about to do colorwork from the inside out ❓️ 🌞🌎

@fruitctrl4255 2 года назад

what size up did you go to with the addi tiny circulars?

@markwilliams1824 3 года назад

Started following your channel thanks to @drowninginyarn , both so inspirational and informative 💙🇦🇺🏳️‍🌈🐻

@susanmcbride587 3 месяца назад

Help!! I can not do the tiny circular needles. Just transferring cramped my hands. I’m basically a dpn knitter and I’m having an almost impossible time doing magic loop at the corners it’s a big mess. I’ve tried a dozen times on magic loop so now I’m going to give dpns a shot. Anyone else in my situation. No one I know does socks so I’m all my myself with you tube.

@sarahmatthews2737 3 года назад

Hey! I’m a new knitter trying to start color work after only doing a few vanilla socks so when you say go up a size in the needle, I usually use 2.25 so what size should I go up to to try color work? Probably a stupid question but I’m such a beginner it’s not even funny!
