Knit Some Simple No-Show Socks

August 23, by Sarah White. Leave a Comment

no show sock knitting patternUsually when I knit something I want to show it off, but if you’re a fan of knit socks and also a fan of not having your socks show when you’re wearing loafers, you just might need a knitting pattern for no-show socks.

The Invisible Summer Mini Socks by Cathy Miller are super cute, and they even include stripes on the toe because, just because no one can see them doesn’t mean they have to be plain. The pattern even suggests working them mostly two at a time, so you’ll have them done and on your feet in no time.

(And if you’re reading this before the end of September, 2018, you can even knit a pair and share it on Ravelry to get another sock pattern for free from the designer. How fun is that?)

Tips for Picking the Right Color Yarn for Your Project

I have never been all that picky about the colors I use in knitting projects. When choosing colors for projects to go in my books, I try to pick colors that go together in individual projects and also to use a variety of colors among the projects in the book, so while I love blue and green I make sure to throw in orange and yellow as well, for example.

When knitting projects for myself I’m usually using stash so whatever I have is good enough. Or if I do happen to be buying yarn for a project, it’s usually more about the texture or fiber content of the yarn first, then choosing a color I like, rather than having a color in mind then finding a yarn with that in its line.

Marie at Olive Knits was looking for the perfect green yarn to replace a store bought sweater, and she found that picking out exactly the right shade was trickier than she expected.

She wrote a blog post full of tips for finding the right yarn when you’re looking for a particular color.

I think the hardest part of this these days is that we tend to do so much online shopping for yarn, either because we don’t have a local yarn store, we can’t get what we want locally or we want to support independent makers who live elsewhere. And if you’ve ever received yarn that isn’t quite the color you were expecting you know what I’m talking about.

One of her tips, then, is to look at a color swatch for the yarn you’re thinking about buying on every monitor or device you have available because it probably will look different on different screens (and maybe different still in person, and under different lighting conditions, or if you use it in a project with other colors…).

Check out her post for more tips on finding the right color for your project.
