Ribbed Ankle Socks (loom knitting)

I’m starting a project both to try out my new CinDWood Knitted Knocker looms. I was going to do these toe-up, but decided I needed more practice with the kitchener stitch, so they’re cuff-down.

I’m using the Ribbed Sock pattern from Isela Phelps’ Loom Knitting socks, and modifying it to ankle socks because Jeremy prefers ankle-length. I’m using Patons Kroy Socks (fingering) yarn in Grey Brown Marl and I didn’t want a stitch pattern that was too fancy hidden by the multicolored yarn. The ribbing will keep the ankle socks up while still showing off the colors.

I finished the heel and laughed — the socks look just like sock monkey faces! All they need are eyes. 😀

Multicolored yarn makes my day.
