April socks
I don't know what I thought when I packed the April small item last year. I had packed some Regia Galaxy sock yarn, and a pattern for yoga socks which calls for DK yarn!
As I had recently made yoga socks I decided to find something more suitable for the Galaxy yarn. I found a pattern in Ravelry called LIR Galaxy, which was designed for this yarn, and seemed fun enough.
Stats:
Needles 2,5mm dpn's
Yarn: as stated, Regia Galaxy
Pattern mods: I had some trouble understanding the pattern, mainly I was too lazy to read it through, so I made some modifications. I made the back increases differently, plus I didn't omit the ribbing in the foot.
I should have made a bit more ribbing in the beginning, the socks slouch a bit, but other than that I like them. The yarn even made some galaxies!
I'm modelling the socks here with my wedding dress!


Love your socks. The galaxy yarn is great, especially when it works and you get some galaxies! Hope you are both well!
