This is also mostly how it gets dyed. After reading Rhonda's blog I'm now also knitting dishcloths which I'm enjoying as they are nice easy knits.Sharyn Mathiesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00541469363634002301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677853477901412488.post-60857469112959644112017-08-06T11:26:49.657+09:302017-08-06T11:26:49.657+09:30Hi Chris, My first question would be are you a com...Hi Chris, My first question would be are you a complete beginner to knitting or just sock knitting? If you are a beginner knitter then I would not attempt to knit socks first off as they would be to hard. If however you can knit but are a beginner sock knitter I do think you can make a pair of socks. It would take a bit of time as they are different to knit. <br /><br />Next question would be, would you be making anklets, crew or knee high socks? I think that maybe you could get them done in about 2/3 weeks to a month, depending on how fast you knit. I would be more than happy to guide you along the way with extra help if you need it.<br /><br />SharynSharyn Mathiesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00541469363634002301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677853477901412488.post-4074340793081348432017-08-06T06:35:54.812+09:302017-08-06T06:35:54.812+09:30I'm not sure what the purpose of a hank yarn i...I'm not sure what the purpose of a hank yarn is when you then need to wind it into a ball. I'm sure there is a reason. You have my interest Sharyn. Socks may just be next now that I can knit dishcloths. <br />KylieHome Is My Havenhttps://homesmyhaven.blogspot.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677853477901412488.post-52536394226440663852017-08-05T21:30:46.896+09:302017-08-05T21:30:46.896+09:30Hello, Sharyn.....I am attempting to start making ...Hello, Sharyn.....I am attempting to start making my first set of socks this winter (New Jersey, USA) and appreciate these tutorials. Do you think an absolute beginner can complete this task (I do NOT need another UFO!) - and was wondering how long you think it would take me to make a pair of socks, knitting approximately 1 hour per day. Thanks for your insight and help - appreciate it! ChrisChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470699550570305409noreply@blogger.com
