I'm finally done with my Louet Hand Dyed Sock Kit
and they are just gorgeous. It is hard to believe that only three
colors of dye created that effect. The entire project was pretty easy.
The dyeing seemed to be pretty much error proof, I didn't even have a
measuring cup to make sure I used the right amount of water. The dye is
really colorfast too. I liked the pattern for the socks as well. I
think the type of ribbing really shows off the colors well. The best
thing is that I have enough yarn left over to make another pair of
socks! I only used half the yarn that came in the kit to make these,
and my feet aren't particularly tiny or anything. I just
followed their pattern for a womens medium. The cuffs are 7-8 inches
long, so the kit really gives you plenty of yarn which is great for some accessories. The Louet Gems Fingering Weight yarn that comes in the kit is wonderful. It is very soft and just a pleasure to work with. Knitting these socks was ultra rewarding for especially when I wear them. :)
