Looking for sock test knitters
Apr. 14th, 2018 12:52 amSo I started knitting another sock t'other day, and first I thought eh, I'll just do a blueberry waffle pattern or something, and then as I was working down the cuff I had a different idea. So now I'm trying something different, and if it works out I'm going to write it up as a sock pattern. It's nothing fancy, nothing that some other knitter couldn't come up with just as easily. But I know that although I'm perfectly able to play buffet and just grab a stitch pattern for the leg, pick a heel treatment and a toe type, there are plenty of knitters out there for whom having the entire pattern written out in detail - and especially in several sizes - is super helpful. So I'm thinking I'd write it up and toss it up as a free sock pattern.
The upper arm damage I took from the Levaquin* means my endurance for knitting is way down from what it used to be. So I'd be interested in finding some test knitters rather than trying to do each prototype myself - plus that tests if my instructions make sense. I'm currently making a woman's large/man's size, because well, that's what I wear. I'd be interested in someone who would want to make a woman's medium size or a child's size, in fingering weight yarn. I do my socks knitting in the round on two circulars, but this could work fine on DPNs or magic loop too.
Anybody interested?
*If you are ever prescribed Levaquin, Levofloxacin, Tavanic, or any fluoroquinolone, ask the doctor what your alternatives are. If "you're gonna die" isn't on there, I strongly recommend you do NOT take them. Certainly LOOK UP the side effects and seriously read them before you do. Especially if you have ever in your life been prescribed any steroids.
