Catalog > Hand Dyed Sock Yarn > Fillet of Sole

These sock fillets are double stranded 'scarves' that have been hand painted.  Undo the bit of waste knitting, then start both socks at once (magic loop, or two circulars or two sets of DPN's) as you unravel.  Eliminates the ball rolling around, and you can set the Fillet of Soletm over your knee or shoulder.  The pattern that emerges will be different than the original, producing an amazing work of art.  Don't want to knit both at once?  I will happily frog and ball your Fillet for you!

Rainbow Stripe - Fillet of Sole on Tiger Twist-rainbow, hand dyed, sock yarn blank, flat, fillet, superwash merino, two at a time socks
Click for Detail
Rainbow Stripe - Fillet of Sole on Tiger Twist
Make the coolest socks on the block!  Start toe up or top down using a two at a time sock pattern, and experience morphing color stripes.  The wicking and resist through the knit blank will result in a tweedy look with interesting color transitions.  This method does cause color to wick more wanderingly and there may be some spots of color in the wrong place.  It magically changes in the re-knitting and you will enjoy the interesting chaos.  The second picture shows an example of one of these knit into a tube sock.
 
Each Fillet is enough to knit a pair of socks with leftovers.  Don't wanna knit 2 @ a time?  Let me know at checkout and I can frog and ball this for you.
