The great thing about West Yorkshire Spinners sock yarn is that you can get 2 pairs of socks from 1 skein if you do a contrasting cuff,heels and toes. Worth every penny 🥹
The other day I was watching the lovely Andrew @albanachknitter - he lives on the Isle of Arran off the coast of mainland Scotland. In his delightful way he was knitting away on a pair of socks. Lo and behold, he was using the Vanilla Sock pattern by yours truly. I was delighted at this 6 degrees of separation moment.
It is so much fun to make things for knit-worthy people! I've made some socks for my sister-in-law, and she has worn through at least one of the pairs because she wears them so often! So now I want to make her all the socks 😆
The West Yorkshire Spinner socks are the absolute definition of 'Christmas socks'. I've seen the Gingerbread colourway a couple of times in ball form - most recently on the Chronicles of Yarnia podcast - but not yet knit up...
You've got some great looking socks done and your preview of the Grinch socks was so fun-PERFECT yarn for those. I see your Musselburgh and kick myself for not getting at least one knit. Yours fits you SO well. I think what stops me is basically, I stink at knitting hats. They're either too big, too small, too short....you name it. I look wretched in hats but I know the Musselburgh would make great gifts. Next year! Holiday gift knitting is in full swing and I'm lovin' it. Looking so forward to Vlogmas-I can't believe it's that time already. Good grief I'm still wondering where October went!!!
Excited for vlogmas this year! It has been so inspiring to see the direction your channel has taken with the closing of the shop, and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
I love your hat and your peppermint mocha socks are fabulous, the colour is great x
Wow you've done so much in your back yard. Looks amazing.
I've got a thermomix to and love it!
I love my handmade knitted hats and wear them all the time in the winter. Right now I’m knitting matching hats for my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter in a real pretty blue. Hopefully I can finish my husband’s socks by his birthday so I can give them to him.
Your hat looks so beautiful on you! Very excited for vlogmas 😊
I have knit a pair of socks with the same Yorkshire Spinners Christmas yarn. I love them!
That mean and green sock yarn.....Wow!!!
I hear you about the necessity of hats in fall, winter and spring here. Montana mountains can be very cold. I have been busy knitting hats and socks for my gift list. Once that is finished I need to add to my own hat collection.
Hi can you teach us a toddler sock, please
I love the Grinch yarn!!
I too love WYS yarn, it wears well and washes easily. Not so keen on yarn with sparkle though as it annoys my hands to knit it. You look cute in your hat. 🇬🇧
I can’t wait for your vlogmas… it’s always one of my favourites and I love that you do it real time!
I love your plan for your advents this year. I plan to open mine daily (I also have 3), then wait till later in December to decide what I'll do with them. I'm leaning towards a shawl for one of them, maybe combined with a strand of mohair. Looking forward to your vlogmas.
That’s a great idea!!!
Good for you Kay!! Knit all the JOY!!!💖 No regular episodes needed from this knitter...take some time for you and your family! You give so much already!!🥰
♥️♥️♥️
Love the new sock pattern. Can’t wait to start soon. Thanks.
Love your Vlogmas series and can’t wait to see all the socks too!
Love the mean in green color way!! Looking forward to Vlogmas!! I'm not a total fan of the Gingerbread colorway from WYS. It a little too orange for me. But i will knit them up once I pick a coordinating color to break it up.
Love that Grinchy green! 💚
Love West Yorkshire Spinners yarn!
YES for vlogmas 😳🗼
Love all the things! Also love your thought process. Enjoy your holidays!! Looking forward to vlogmas 😊
Holiday fun socks
Look like candy stripes and the 🎄 stitchmaker
Gingerbread yarn sounds like a plan
Socks 🧦 and more socks
Jippiieee vlogmis... Can't wait
Hello Kay… 3 By The Sea Yarns is fabulous… definitely would get that started as soon as possible 😍🧶😍
I’ve been rewatching last year’s vlogmas during knitting time this past week and it’s helped so much with getting in the holiday spirit! So excited for this year’s~
So love Eric’s peppermint mocha socks. My 3 by the sea is out for delivery today, woohoo. Love your Grinch bag❤️
Loved seeing the Three by the Sea caked up. When mine arrived, I was thrilled with the full skein and the mini. I bet a Fiber Seed Musselburgh feels wonderful. Lindsay’s yarn is a dream to knit. Looking forward to vlogmas and seeing your projects. Thx for sharing.
Thank you for the project link for dk cozy memories! I looked on your project tab for an hour and had to give up bc my eyes hurt 😂🙄🫣. Can't wait to see vlogmas!
Oh no.. all current projects are always right at the top of the project tab on Ravelry. ♥️
I can’t wait to see your yarn from Three By the Sea. I didn’t order. Ugh. Love how you are simplifying this year and only doing what brings you joy. I used to always over do it every holiday and would end up w a whopping cold after Christmas. Took me years to learn. You are smart to rein it in! I hope you enjoy every moment with your family this Christmas season!
West Yorkshire Spinners sock yarn is a very good “workhorse” yarn , meaning very hard wearing and affordable. The Nutcracker colour of this year’s Christmas sock is really lovely but I think Gingerbread is my favourite! I’m just about to cast on another Musselburgh hat as they are a lovely easy knit with everything else going on!
Hi Kay. I agree that working on just a couple of things at a time makes WIPs turn into FOs much faster. Especially during the holidays when we want to get all the things made for gift giving. It's the physical manifestation of the fact that multi tasking is a myth. We can convince ourselves that we are able to do many things at once but in reality we can only do one thing, focus on one thing at a time. It's like shining a flashlight in the dark. You can only see what the light is focused on. Have a great day and I can't wait for Vlogmas!!
So excited for vlogmas. It is so fun to have a daily meet up to chat and knit! And it really puts me in the holiday spirit!
I'm looking forward to vlogmas and all you will be sharing. 🎄❤️
I'm so excited for vlogmas!!
I can’t handle how good the grinch yarn and bag is 🤩💚 I can’t wait for vlogmas!!
Started knitting on 9” circulars because you shared it’s your current method (not favorite, current) and I think I love it!
Thanks for sharing everything! Can’t wait for Vlogmas!! 💜💜
It’s such a fun way to knit up socks!
I’m excited for your vlogmas episodes!
I love watching your Vlogmas episodes because I enjoy seeing you open all the different yarn advents you get.
Christmas sock knitting is on!!! Love the inspiration from you, Kay!
I love vlogmas! You have such a great attitude Kay, I am always inspired watching your videos. ❤
Your podcasts are wonderful. I love the Mean and Green yarn. It will be fun to watch them grow. Memory blanket is amazing. I 'm knitting Christmas socks too. So much fun with the self-stripping yarn. Looking forward to Vlogmas!
Ugh. I knew I was going to regret not getting the mystery sock set from Three by the Sea. 😢 It looks amazing I can’t wait to see how it works up.
I always enjoy your vlogmas!
The holiday sock yarns you're using are SO cute! Getting me in the spirit!
I am so happy for the holidays are coming and so looking forward for your vlogmas to beginning . I enjoy you so much!!🎄🎄🎄
I can’t believe we are already talking Vlogmas! It really just seems to be coming up so suddenly. Looking so forward to it…always enjoy watching your videos!❤
Hi Kay ❤
Looking forward for volgmas. Got mine pattern. Have a great week ahead stay warm❤
The sparkle socks are so pretty!
I love the grinchy yarn! I completely understand the love of hats, I'm in Michigan so I've had mine out for almost two weeks.
I love how that musselburgh hat compliments your eye color.
Thank you! ♥️
WYS self striping yarns make great squares on a mitre square blanket, I love how it changes the look of the stripes. Looking forward to vlogmas, but can't believe we are here already.
I remember the year you woke up SO excited because it had snowed and you did a video walking in the squeaky snow early in the am - think you had just moved from AZ. That first snow (I am in Oregon) is always so sweet. Love your podcasts and Vlogmas.
This year, I was more mindful when ordering my yarn advents. Two with 24 minis plus a full skein. One 12 day advent, which will be for the 12 days of Christmas (Dec 25th to Jan 6 Epiphany). I always get Rebecca of Chemknits Creations Chanukah advent and watch the UA-cam videos each night.
The Grinch yarn set is *chef's kiss* so good
I can't believe Vlogmas is here! Your socks are beautiful and I'm looking forward to seeing the ones you knit over the Advent season.
Thanks Kayla. Your christmas yarn blanket is looking great and I might start knitting one. I have never knitted a blanket or shawl before as I like crochet more but I am thinking about it. I am trying to finish a pair of vanilla socks so I can start on another pair for a friend's birthday that is in January. I will see how I go. I am looking forward to seeing all your advents and your daily vlog to the lead up to Christmas . Thankyou.
Love Eric's socks.. especially the mint ones. Can't wait for vlogmas. Love making Musselburg hats...my husband's favorite. Gorgeous Grinch yarn! That Christmas yarn is gorgeous 😍
Just bought your new Socks pattern :) really lokking forward to vlogmas 💕
I found your channel only last year. So, when I started buying the Christmas yarn this September/October, I went back and watched EVERY year/episode of your Vlogmas ... a few in the evenings and sometimes in the mornings! It took several days after I had watched them all to snap out of the enchantment.😊😂
That is awesome! I love watching Vlogmas!!
Christmas socks are my favorite! Thank you for showing us yours!
I hope y’all have a very merry Christmas🎄
That grinchy yarn really says Christmas fun. Love Erik's socks.
Loving your holiday wips. Gonna watch Vlogmss next.❤
Vlogmas, my favorite time of the year🎄⛄️
I also got the Mean and Green sock set and it's just so good!!
That Mean and Green combo is just WOW!! Perfect for the Grinch project bag!! SOOO excited for Vlogmas!!
I just cast on my first scrappy cowl and will be using a fingering weight advent calendar for it.
Love how your hat makes your eyes standout. Lovely colour on you. Yes I think the grinch socks are going to turn out great love the bright colours. Yeah vlogmas is almost here can’t wait but it usually takes up until the end of February to see them all.😂 but that’s okay it keeps me entertained. There’s so many great vlogs out and I enjoy lots of different crafts. It’s an exciting time of year.🥰
Ooo il just casting on with wys fairy lights yarn. Can't wait now ❤
You are going to love it!!
Looking forward to Vlogmass! I started watching your viedos last year during Vlogmass and really enjoyed them.
I love WYS sock yarn they make for warm hardwearing socks. I actually didn’t order any yarn advent calendars this year (I have a candle one and a chocolate one ). I got a fun DK sock set on a recent yarn dyeing retreat and plan to knit on those over December when I’m watching vlogmas
Thanks for the shout out! ❤ I’m excited for the December Yarnable! That Grinch yarn from Three by the Sea is amazing! 🤩
I got the shipping notification for mine earlier! I can’t wait for it to get here. 😍
I love your plans for December knitting! ❤
So excited to see your advent calendars 🎉
Can't wait for vlogmas!
I love your cow phone cover!!
Thank you!!! 🐄 😊
I just started the leg on my 2nd Find the Joy Sock, while I watched this. How lovely is that? I am super looking forward to seeing the grinchy yarn worked up, and for Vlogmas! ❤️💚✨

Looking forward to your vlogmas this year. First time with your channel
Love the new Coziest Memory blanket. Looking forward to Flogmas. I so enjoyed last year's!
The Three by the Sea yarn, caked up is so fun!! Looking forward to your vlogmas, with all the Christmas socks!!
Yay, I can't wait to cozy up with my coffee and watch your vlogmas every morning! Hmmm, might have to marathon last year's videos today to really get me into the Vlogmas spirit... where did the year go??!!
Woo hoo! Looking forward to vlogmas, but please no stress for the regular videos . We are all very grateful for what you put up for us to watch :)) Looking forward to all the socks and squares coming :)
❤️
A Mean & Green sock WIP inside that Cabana Berry project pouch would be very-merry pleasant ☺️
Your teal mussleberg hat really brings out your eyes. I bet your husband will be very happy with his socks!
I agree… I’m simplifying my advents this year. I just want to enjoy the season.
Im so excited for advent season. This year ill be opening a yarny advent for the first time. Cant wait for vlogmas to start too
I love watching your vlog-mas! I live vicariously thru you watching the advents being opened….someday!
@Account-for-Giveaway for real? What did I win? A good old account hack? No thanks keep it…I’m good!
Love the mocha mint socks!
Your socks are beautiful love the hat also.
Looking forward to vlogmas too! And I printed out your sock pattern and trying to decide yarn as well!! Love your hat too!!! I also love sweatshirts too! They are my favorite!!!
I love the yarns you show! But I'm kind of new at sock knitting, and I was wondering, when you see a skein of multi colored yarn (like the West Yorkshire Spinners yarn), how can you tell what it's going to look when you knit it? Some of the sellers don't post photos of swatches. I've had some surprises -- so far they haven't been horrible. 🙂
If its self striping it will usually say. I know there are ways to tell if you lay a skein of yarn out how it will look. But, I'll be honest. I have no clue. 😂 I am not one who ever tries to figure out how things will look when they are knit up, I just like to let the yarn do its thing. That is half of the fun for me. 😊
That grinch sock set is so awesome! 😍😍😍
Great podcast thank you
Looking forward to vlogmas! You're so relaxing to watch. Lol.
Love hat and sock pattern!! Thanks for sharing!
I love both of Eric’s socks, the peppermint mocha is great. The grinch ones will be awesome to! It will be nice to see your Cosy Memories with more squares added. I love you hat on you, I have the pattern and started hat, but thought it was going to be to big so ripped it out! Please chat a bit more about yours, is it made with sock yarn? Looking forward to Vlogmas it’s so relaxing and inspiring.
Yep, its made with fingering weight yarn. All details are on the ravelry project page thats linked below the video in the description box. ♥️
