June Knit-Along and Pattern Sale: Ice Cream Sundae Socks!

 The Ice Cream trucks are out and about, so it seems only fitting that this month's Knit-Along Pattern is the Ice Cream Sundae Socks! And, if you don't have the pattern, don't worry, it's 50% off for the month of June!

These socks were the result of playing with yarn and stitch dictionaries. I wanted a stitch pattern that would show off variegated yarn and keep it from being 'ugly'. The Ice Cream Sundae Socks were the result!

The sample was knit using Blue Moon Fiber Arts Super Sparkle, a 4 ply Superwash Merino yarn with Lurex blended into the plies, which has since been discontinued.  If you are substituting yarn, any Merino/Nylon or wool Sock Yarn will work up well. This pattern is designed to help break up repeats of highly variegated yarn, but solid, tonal, and gradient yarns will also be beautiful in these socks.

 This pattern has both charted and written instructions, as well as an accessible large print option that is compatible with screen-reading software. This option includes only the written instruction.

 You can buy the pattern through Etsy,  in my Web Shop, in my Patreon Shop, or, on Ravelry.  The discount is available on all platforms for the month of May! And if you're a Patron, you can download the pattern for free from the Patreon Shop as well! 

 Now, onto the Knit-Along Details!

For the month of June, every finished pair of socks has a chance to win a $25 USD Gift Card from Knit Picks, or, a $30 CAD Gift Card from The Knitting Loft!  This choice is due to the Canada/US tariff situation; when I contact the winner, I'll ask them which shop they would prefer.

 If you're outside Canada or the US, sadly, I can't do gift certificates, but, you can, instead win 4 patterns of your choice from my Web Shop!
