"Dancing" socks


These are a cute pair of socks made with Knit Picks' Dancing in Tap. I loved using this yarn and even with the colour pooling, I still like the results. The pattern is just a simple k2p2 ribbed cuff. Knit Picks have discontinued this yarn, which is too bad. I bought another colour to make another pair of socks. The skeins are quite large; I have enough yarn left to make another sock, so it's quite a bargain.

I have some Dancing in my stash I haven't started yet. Yours look so pretty, I may have to get started on mine soon!

Thanks, Emma!! It is nice and don't worry about running out of yarn! I might order more of this before it's all gone!

U know I love those socks! I actually have some of the very same yarn in my sock yarn stash...gonna have to knit it up.

Get knitting, Whimsical! Let me know how you like working with this yarn...I think it's very nice!

I have knit with Dancing...but, not the same colorway. As a matter of fact, my socks are featured on KnitPicks in all of their Dancing glory.
I've not been knitting socks in the past month...I miss socknitting when I don't do it constantly, too!!!
I showed another knitter some of your shawls...she was amazed by their beauty.

Great socks! I like this yarn too, I just finished a pair (baby socks, actually). I like the little bit of pooling, it makes a pretty pattern. And you're right about it going far. I will miss it!

I love your socks. I just finished a pair with Dancing too and they are on my blog as well. I love this stuff.
