These are currently on my bamboo circular needles – a thick sock made from fabulous wool from this lovely hand-dyed wool shop: Baby Long Legs. I am using the Double Knit Merino Wool dyed in striking blues, turquoises, and purples! I love the super soft texture and the squishy feel of it knit up! I would definitely recommend this wool shop because of its good quality wool, unique and vibrant dyes, and attentive customer care. Look for the pattern soon in my new tutorials section. I’ve written it up and have all but the gusset sorted.

I have a couple of sets of the bamboo circulars and love them.
Any pattern for the thick socks? I’m a slow knitter :)

Hi Lostneedle,
Bamboo needles are great aren’t they?
I am drafting a pattern for these thick socks right now, actually, so will hopefully have that up on my Patterns page soon – check back in a couple days! Happy to meet another knitter…
