Testing Deadline: August 31st (up for discussion on this. I’m not sure the average time for knitting a pair of socks)
What I’ll need from testers:
🧶 Knit the pattern and provide feedback on clarity, errors, and fit
📏 Let me know how much yarn you used (roughly)

Pretty, do you have an estimated yardage
•
u/Ordinary_Payment_339 Jul 21 '26
I don’t :(, that’s one thing I need help with.The sock weighs 30 grams (60 for the pair) if that’s any help!
I’m knit a medium and used a 437 yard skein that has plenty of yarn left on it 🤍•

What's the remaining weight of the skein?

My scales are way off, which is why I haven’t said for sure. I will work it out later at work with decent scales :] thank you 🤍
Edit:Post has been updated :D

I would love to partake. Socks are my favorite thing to knit. I could do a size medium if you are still looking for testers :))

This is so pretty!! I’m not good enough at knitting (extremely beginner) to test, but I will keep an eye out for when the pattern comes out ☺️
