WIP: Gothic Spire socks by CookieA

Gothic Spire socks

After finishing Bob’s socks, I IMMEDIATELY cast on the Gothic Spire socks by cookie. I’m using Wollmeise sock yarn in Gewitterhimmel colorway. It’s going v.e.r.y. s.l.o.w. There’s these weird wrappings around stitches that I think I’m pulling too tight. This is for my secret pal, I sure do hope it fits. I have a hard time figuring out what size to make. I had her measure her foot and I just subtracted 1 in off her foot circumference. But then they had a leg circumference measurement which kind of confused me because what if one measurement fits but the other doesn’t? There’s nothing you can really do I guess, except maybe increase needle size or something. If anyone has a “rule” they use for choosing sock size for knitting a sock for someone other than yourself (and they can’t try it on), please let me know!!!

What does bockstark mean (pronounced bok-shtark)? My crazy German friend, Matthias, made that word up to mean "really cool" and says that it is catching on in Garmisch. So I am helping him popularize the word! I thought if I ever opened a yarn store, I would call it "Bockstark Yarns". This blog is all about my projects, yarns and crazy ideas related to knitting and other crafts. Contact me at bockstark.knits(at)gmail(dot)com.
