Looking forward to all the colors. If I have a mini with the stripe yarn I have plenty for a pair of socks. If I have 70g stripes the I can knit a sock completely without the mini. I’m happy with it either way. I use the extra yarn for other projects when I have leftovers. Thank you for showing all the colors coming out soon. Can’t wait to shop them.
I love the 50 gram sock set, and I appreciate that you are trying to keep the prices down! I wear a size 9-9 1/2, and I’ve never run out of yarn. Thank you for all the beautiful colorways you are always creating!
We all have random mini's in our stash that can be added as well to stretch out the 50g/20g sock sets. My socks are usually between 60-65 grams when finished(including using a mini)...I like not having a lot of yarn leftover. Strawberry Shortcake 😍🤩😍 Can't wait to see Candance and Krista at the Foothills Fibrefest!!! Nice to have a fibrefest in my neck of the woods lol
Hi Ladies! Your finished knitwear is gorgeous!💖 Have Fun tomorrow!🤗 I'll have to finish watching then.... so I'll be with you in spirit! Another Stephen West project??? You are always inspiring! 179!!!!!!🤔😂 Edit Karin here....I love the 50/20 option, always enough yarn!❤
I love the Glow Sheep, not sure I'll be able to stop myself from driving up to get it on Saturday, won't have the patience to wait until 3:00 to order it! The self-striping sock sets are the perfect amount, I have leftovers but not so much that I feel guilty about having a bunch leftover that I don't know what to do with.
I wear an 8 1/2 US and your 50 gr + 1 mini is perfect! I knit 20 rows cuff (with mini), 64 st, 65 row leg, heel flap and gusset (with mini) and 55row foot and toe (with mini). I have some main color left. If you have to change, add a mini. I’d rather pay for a mini than for extra self striping. I LOVE your colors!!!!!!!!!!
No don’t change the self striping sets! I think make it so there is an option to buy an additional mini but not mandatory. I always have plenty of yarn and I am size 8 and knit pretty tall socks. Also I love all of your Stripeometry shawl combos!!! I just made my shopping list for Saturday!!!
New viewer, but I vote that you keep your self striping yarn at 50 gram with a 20 gram mini. Like others I usually have a LOT of leftover yarn when I buy the larger skein.
I knit for people with large feet and 72 stitches in diameter. I would prefer to have 75 grams of the self striping yarn. I LOVE all your PDK & MMF collaborations!
Hi Ladies, thank you for another great podcast. I would love a Sweet Shop blanket for next Christmas. It's on my list! Laura Penrose also has the Stella Quilt blanket coming out soon. Just a thought😊 I haven't had the pleasure of knitting a self-striping pair of your sock set yet. I weighed a pair I just made and it's 75 grams. I have a sz 10.5 foot but I would just go shorter on the leg.I appreciate your keeping cost down. I can't wait for the new sock sets to come out online. Enjoy LYS. I wish I could come up from Boston! Maybe in the summer ❤
Don’t change anything in the self striping sock sets! I love a 50g + 20g set for socks and I love not having leftovers in self striping. I also love that they are a more affordable option.
Love all the Jethro’s. I’m also making one. I’m very new to crochet. How are you all joining your blocks together? There’s so many videos that it’s overwhelming.
I don’t like long socks so I always make shorty socks and I wear I size 7. I did 64 stitches, 15 rounds for the cuff, 15 rounds for the leg, heel flap and gusset method where I used the mini for the heel flap. Once I am back to 64 stitches, I knit 45 rounds then switch to mini for the toe. I have 13.10g left over from the 50g main skein and 8.52g left from the 20g mini. I think there is definitely enough of the main skein left to have made longer socks and the cuff could always be done with the mini instead of the main skein which would make even longer socks.
I like the self striping sets as they are now - plenty of yarn for socks and few leftovers. Also economical. If you were to make a change, I’d opt for an extra mini… but again, for me, I don’t think it’s necessary.
Love all your colours in self striping. I personally think it’s nice if you allow option of purchasing 50gm skein an you can order 1 or 2 coordinating minis and obviously cost would reflect that.
I use the entire 50 gram skein. I'm an 8.5 ish. And I do a 72 stitch sock on 2 mm needles. I always have a little bit of the mini left over but I do a contrasting heel toe and cuff every time. I also do a toe up sock, so I always know exactly half. I hate having left overs. I would say to keep your sock sets the way they are. They are perfect.
New subscriber from Red Deer. I definitely will have to come to your shop as you are so close. Loving your podcast. I was wondering if polka dot creek will be a vendor at the Lacombe Fibre Festival in September 2024
I am a size 9 with 64 stitches. I do a 20 row cuff, heel flap & gusset, toes out of a 20 gr mini. For the 50 gram I do a 40 row leg and knit to size 9. I always have plenty of yarn with leftovers.
I like the 50g skein... it's plenty for almost all the people I would make socks for...and my hubby just can't have it since his socks need to be so much bigger 😁. (if he didn't need a minimum of 70 rounds for the leg!@#$!)
I can make a pair of socks with the 50 gram and a mini for me and I do 72 stitches and I have a size 12 woman’s and I have left overs also I make my son shorties and he has size 13 and 72 stitches for his I do buy an extra mini

I love all your colorways…especially purple! As for the sock sets, I will go with whatever you think is best! ❤

Oh! You know I love a good blanket! But a Christmas one!! Sign me up!

Thanks for another great podcast. I am always price conscious, so 50 and mini is ideal
I like the way you are doing it. I loved the strawberry sundae. 🍨

Like others I usually have a LOT of leftover yarn when I buy the larger skein.
I think 50 g with the mini is perfect to. Lots of yarn for my 10 foot. I have extra minis in my stash to mix up different heels and toes if you want.
I knit for people with large feet and 72 stitches in diameter. I would prefer to have 75 grams of the self striping yarn. I LOVE all your PDK & MMF collaborations!
I like the 120 grams for socks because I like using the left over scraps in my blankets. I’m a size 6 to 7 & I like my scrappy socks & blankets.

Just a suggestion for your leftovers you could crank them all together and make some crazy scarfs for local shelter
Just a thought

Oh a DK Christmas Sweet Shop ❤️❤️❤️ Count me in !

I didn’t realize you did 50 g sock sets! I think they’re brilliant; totally agree about leftover self~ striping!

So many beautiful colors! How do I pick?? I like the 50 gram with one mini. I think that is just enough and the cost is good.
I think 50/20g is perfect. I have bought sock sets from other dyers who use the same ratio. No need to change😁
I am knitting the 4th square of my April blanket Club Block while I watch you ladies. I have that cardigan on my Ravelry wish list.
I would say keep it the same: the 50 and 20 works for me.
I prefer 50g sock sets. If I have to get a 100g skein i always split with someone else. The option to add another mini would be a bonus though.
Your self striping sock sets are perfection! Always the perfect amount
I am a size 9 with 64 stitches. I do a 20 row cuff, heel flap & gusset, toes out of a 20 gr mini. For the 50 gram I do a 40 row leg and knit to size 9. I always have plenty of yarn with leftovers.
I just purchase an extra mini and use them for cuff, heel & toe
50gram and 20gram mini is plenty of yarn to make a pair of socks, I wear a size 10 and I have never run out.
…but if you did have to change something, I would opt for the extra mini
I like the 50g skein... it's plenty for almost all the people I would make socks for...and my hubby just can't have it since his socks need to be so much bigger 😁. (if he didn't need a minimum of 70 rounds for the leg!@#$!)
What is the granny square project called
Jethro Cardigan by Tanis Lavalee (spelling is probably incorrect)
I can make a pair of socks with the 50 gram and a mini for me and I do 72 stitches and I have a size 12 woman’s and I have left overs also I make my son shorties and he has size 13 and 72 stitches for his I do buy an extra mini
I think the 50 is perfect! I love the ice cream sets and the succulent sets. Oh decisions to make. 🩷
