And it was Vicky of Baerenwolle who inspired me to do the Snozzberries socks, I mean how awesome are these?

Went to the gym 🏋🏻, then changed back into pj's (all-over Scandinavian print!) ☺️ for the remainder of the day, I will only exercise my fingers. One sock down! #BAERENWOLLE colorway Mermaid (will be available again on Friday), pattern "Snozzberries" by R.

Question of the Week

What is your favorite gauge for knitting socks? I knit quite tightly, usually around 8-10 sts/inch. Also, do you adjust your gauge to fit a pattern, or are you stubborn like me and you adjust a pattern to fit your default gauge?

If you want to see more of my knitting, feel free to befriend me on Ravelry or Instagram.

There's also a Ravelry group that can be found here, if you enjoy that sort of thing...
