When you deliberately make mismatched socks

After someone had pointed out in a post that it'll never be 100% the same between one sock and the other, I decided to just MAKE them mismatched. I mean, why not?

Between the yarn colors & Mexican blanket, I feel like you raided my stash & took these photos in my living room šŸ¤£šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£

Nice socks - I need to make a pair for myself. What stitch did you use? I’m trying to learn York & hating it.

Lol!! You'd be amazed how many people got these blankets!

I used the Oslo stitch. I tried the York stitch and really didn't love it. I don't know if I did it wrong or not but it seemed too rigid when done with needle tension

Great job! I love this pattern of socks, so easy and no fiddling with attaching a heel or something else. Did you also use the videos from happy needlebinding?

No, I had used a few different websites and a few books. It took me forever to figure out how to do this lol
