thanks for commenting! I am really pleased with the spiraling - it appears to be keeping up as I move up the foot.

I like those colors of Koigu. That look really nice together. I have never see it spiral like that either, but so far it looks good!

Thanks! I’ll send the dryer suggestion on with the socks when they are finished. I’ll keep ribbing in mind for the next sock when size is such an issue.

Thanks for the reassurances!

Those are some very pretty sock toes. If they are a little too loose, the recipient can probably just dry them a bit in the dryer. Sometimes when I’m in doubt about fit, I end up making socks in ribbing all the way down the leg and top of foot…I had to learn to like ribbing. lol If you’re really getting 10 sts/inch though, they’ll probably be fine.

so far it looks consistent - we’ll see what happens as I move up the foot - if it stays spiral I might consider a plain knit leg - although I am not sure I am willing to do anything quite that boring - or knit anything quite that repetitive - my brain might fall out.

I’ve seen that pseudo stripey pooling, when it stays consistent it looks great.

Was shopping today, and almost found tyedye onesies for TPTBNL….
