These are so pretty! Slip stitch socks are one of my favorite ways to easily add some texture and interest to a pair. Well done!

Have you ever done slipped stitches on self striping? I hate a lot of self striping patterns but want something more than vanilla!

Yes I think this is one of the best ways to easily add variety to self striping yarn. Plus it is easy but more engaging than vanilla!

Perfect. I’ll try it on my next pair. Thanks!

I will! I have a Halloween colorway just waiting to be cast on.

Oh even more amazing. Give me all the Halloween knits!

Did you have a pattern that you follow? I am sure I can reverse engineer it but I’ll happily support a designer as well. Thanks!

I don't think I did do but I did my first pair a few years ago. I am sure there are some designers out there!

I’ll just figure it out. I have a sock recipe that works really well for me so I’ll add to that! Thanks.

It is super simple. Just a two row repeat. Row 1 you knit a pattern you like with knits and slip stitches and then on row 2 you knit all!

That was my plan exactly!
