Thrilled to have found a Lemmy knitting group! I'm a sock obsessive, I just love knitting socks, so I've ended up with an staggering amount of "scrap" yarn. The solution - blankets. This is my second Cosiest Memories project and this time I have a Plan. The first one was truly random, with lots of placement errors. When it was finished I did a dark icord edge, and suddenly it was smart!

So for the second one I'm adding an inner border of that same colour and (eventually) will finish with icord. I might even knit some more socks!

Ah that makes sense, I think I skimmed the "sock" part to mean "scrap from former sock projects" rather than "sock yarn". I know you generally make socks from sock yarn but, you never know!
