I don't have much progress to show but I couldn't help participating in this week's #needleworkmonday after one week of absence ;) It's a great community!

あまり進展はないのですが、NeedleworkMonday を1週間お休みしたら無性に参加したくなり、のろのろソックスについて書くことにします。いいコミュニティー。

I finished the heel part of the second socks. It is the most difficult part of knitting socks together with toe. Now just I have to k p k p k p ... until it has same length as the first one has. Yeah! It will be done soon :)

難関のかかとを終えて、ふたつめもあとはひたすらひとつめと同じ長さになるまでゴム編みするのみになり、完成間近です。子どものお迎えのトラムの中、夕方子どもと遊びながらせっせと編んで来週にはできあがりそうです。やっと!

I was knitting the socks on a tram, on a train, at cafe. It's quite handy. Some people, mostly ladies and kids, talked to me "What are you knitting?" I was happy to try to explain my socks in German and enjoyed small talks.

靴下のいいところは小さいのでどこでも編めるところかもしれません。トラムに長距離電車にカフェに外出先で隙間時間に編んでいるといろいろな人たちに話しかけられます。子どもと女性が多いです。もちろんドイツ語で、なんとかドイツ語で説明できるととてもうれしく会話を楽しみました。特に小さい子どもは外国人の私がドイツ語を話せないことがわからず容赦ないけれど w

Some notes for the next time:
次回また編む時のために思いついたことをメモしておきます。

  • Yarn: toe and heel can be separate yarn with a single color (stronger yarn can be an option to make it long lasting.) / 毛糸はつま先とかかとは別に単色のものを使うと見た目がいいかも。少し強い毛糸にすると耐久性もあがりそう。
  • General: plain k instead of k p (rib) especially yarn with print. But can it be fitting enough? / メインの部分はゴム編みではなくメリヤス編みがよい?でもそうすると足首ゆるくならないかな。要実験。
  • Toe: initial stitch is 12 x2 (Judy's Magic Cast On), increase to 30 x2. / つま先はJudy's Magic Cast On で12目x2で30目x2まで増やす。
  • 60 rows after toe until heel / つま先を編み終わったあとかかとまでは大体60段。
  • Heel: short row reducing to 12. / かかとの short row は12目まで減らす。

I wish I can finish it this week and start my first weaving project this weekend.

はてさて今週中に終わるかな。終わったら生まれて初めて織物をしてみようと思っています。


One small advertisement: When you bake bread in between your needlework and write about it, add # breadbakers tag to your post :) I learned a lot from NeedleworkMonday and wanted to start a bread baking community on Steemit.

Looks great! And a sock as a knitting project is just the right size to take with you for knitting-on-the-go :)

What kind of short rows do you use? I know there is a Japanese way to do them but I never investigated how they work. I still use the German short rows that I was taught years ago - all my knitting world browsing and looking at "wrap and turn" and "shadow wrap" only confirmed my opinion that those are more complicated and not as nifty.

Wow I didn't know there are various short row techniques. And even there is a Japanese one! I must read about it. The short rows I made is simple: knit until the last stitch of active stitches, turn, slip a stitch and purl until the last active stitches. I followed the instruction of Lifestyle Toe Up Socks.

Talking about short rows, I once knit a cat full of short rows.

Now I want to knit at rainbow cat with Schoppel yarn :D

oh yeees!!! Rainbow cat. But this grey one is also super cute. I love her nose <3

Gray is good for a small person ... stains are almost invisible ;)

amazing cat !!!!!

I made it as my pillow for traveling but it turned to be my daughters toy these days ;)

not surprised !!!! the cat is wonderful !!!!

Oooooh! thank!!!! I need to have the courage to knit such a cat :)

あたたかそうですね。かかとが難しいんだ… フムフムと思いながら読みました。
私も編み物に興味がわいてきて、夏頃母に教えて(冬になったら)と頼んだら、いいわよと言っていたのですが、忙しそうだからムリかもです……
私は帽子が欲しいです😊

かかとは目を減らしていって、そのあと減らした分を増やして直角を作るのですが、集中していないと間違えてしまい、ひとつめは3度くらい編み直しました 😅

偉大なお師匠さん忙しいの残念ですね。小さい頃に母や祖母に教わったのが懐かしいです。そのあと長いこと編んでいなかったのですが、手が覚えていてびっくりです。一生ものの趣味になりますよ〜

セブンさんの帽子見てみたいです。ぜひ #needleworkmonday へ!

なんと素敵な色合い!グラデーションがたまらなく良いです!
編み物って何段眼からなになに編み…とか、とっても頭を使いますね。
私の友人が同じく靴下を編んでいる、とFacebookに投稿していたのですが、靴下は輪針?で編むのですか?

靴下は全体的にはシンプルなのですが、かかとだけ頭がしびれます。。。子どもが寝たあと集中して一気に編み上げています。それでも何度となく間違い、修行のようです ;)

靴下、輪針で編めますよ。小さい輪のものは棒針4本で編むのが一般的ですが、輪針でも編めます。輪針だと針と針の間のケーブル部分が柔軟なので試着しやすくぴったりのができあがります。以前棒針で編んでいて無理やり試着して歩いて針を折ってしまったことがあります。。。

こんな感じで足の面と裏(?)2部に分けて編んでいます。

They look really warm already, @akipponn ! The best thing is that they're made to measure :D

That's right. I have two pairs of wool socks I bought from a store I think it was for 39-42 and a bit big for me. They are fine at home but when I try to wear boots the size becomes troublesome. It's really nice that we can make socks, clothes etc fit for us also preference wise by making our own :)

Ooo so pretty the colours! The socks look really soft and it is so fun that you can knit anywhere and strike a good conversation :) And you make me want to try baking bread now :)

I'm often quite shy to talk to people especially in a foreign language but with knitting it becomes not difficult at all :) And yeah here is another needle work baker! Bake bake @marblely :) I look forward to seeing your bread 🍞

On the other hand knitting is kind of a barrier for me. I can't stand lots of people for a long time but give me something to knit and crochet and I'm happily sitting at the edge of the crowd, observing them and participating in conversation

I agree with you. Sometimes I'm happy to have something in my hand too.

恐怖の減らし目ー!!そして増し目ぇ。
頭クラクラします。
あたしは腹巻編まないと〜( ̄▽ ̄;)ずぇんずぇん進んでない!

くらくらしますよね、、、ちょこっと集中力が切れるとミスして最初からやり直し・・・を何度となく繰り返しました。腹巻き楽しみです :)

I really like how you do it. socks will be very cute. I have never knitted them with your method, but I knit the other way around: from top to bottom and on five needles. I also often have similar situations because I also do knitting wherever I go :) only I need to explain what I do in Hebrew. I can not boast that I am good at it :)

Maybe ten knitter ten ways of knitting socks :) I have one from my boyfriend's grandma on my desk now and it's knitted in a different way. Knitting/crocheting is worldwide, probably that's why it's a good conversation starter.

If you ask me I would magic cast on the heel then separate yarn to make it long lasting. After this I would increase Judy to 30 to get her fitting :-DDDD Oh, I forgot: now put everything into the oven :-D
Ok... you already know, I have not a clue about sock knitting but I love your socks, the yarn is beautiful and they look very neat (I especially like the turquoise at the heel)
And I am very curious about the weaving project (as you can imagine )!!!!

Knitting socks is practical, fun and quite simple for most of the parts. It's a good side project :) And I can be brave to wear bright colors, which is needed for the cold dark winter but too shy to wear as a sweater ... I tend to wear black and dark blue.

Yes weaving comes next. Thanks to your & @muscara' advice on Discord, I start my weaving adventure. I will make a small textile with a cardboard loom :)

I’ll tackle knitted socks one day in the future. Your socks are really cute.

Thanks jluvs2fly :) Color & warmth certainly help you to survive winter.
