Infinity Sox

Infinity is a scrap-yarn sock and she is your chance to use up those tiny pieces of sock yarn that you have at home, and at the same time make an arty sock with attitude. The sock is worked from the top-down in stocking stitch, with a 2X2 ribbed cuff, a small heel gusset and an afterthought heel. Toe and heel are finished with grafting (aka Kitchener stitch). The whole construction of the sock is with sustainability in mind. Using scrap yarn goes without saying. The afterthought heel and toe are easily replaced when needed, and the framing colour makes it easy to remove a block that is torn and replace it with another colour by reknitting and grafting. In that way it is a magic sock that will last forever, renewed block by block in eternity. So check your stash, get your needles and start knitting your own pair of Infinities! **Yarn and colours** You need fingering weight yarn (approx. 400m per 100g) suitable for socks, in a lot of different colours, preferably scrap yarn.
