NeedleworkMonday: Unraveling a Sock and Preparations for Knitting

in needleworkmonday •  5 years ago 

Remake of a Sock

Some weeks ago I showed you the socks my sister received as a gift - they were much too big and I offered to reknit them for her. These are the steps of that procedure:

Middle right:Starting to unravel the sockVon der Spitze aus wird der Socken aufgeribbelt
Lower right:The reel I bought recently - it really helps with winding the yarn.Die letztens angeschaffte Haspel - wirklich sehr hilfreich für diese Arbeit.
Lower Left:The skein of yarn - really crinkled after having been a sock.Stark gekräuselt, aber ordentlich im Strang

Upper left:I wetted the yarn and suspended between two clothes hangers. I put a light jacket on the lower hanger as a weight to flatten the yarn without putting too much tension on it.Den angefeuchteten Garnstrang hab ich auf einen Kleiderbügel gehängt und mit einem zweiten beschwert - eine leichte Regenjacke gab genau das richtige Gewicht um es nicht zu sehr zu dehnen.
Upper right:Close-up of the slightly wet yarn between the hangers.Nahaufnahme des Garns zwischen den Kleiderbügeln
Middle right:The dried and mostly straightened yarn.Das trockene Garn am nächsten Tag - fast glatt.
Lower right:Rolling the yarn on the nostepinne to form a cake.Das Garn wird mittels der Nostepinne zu einem Knäuel geformt.
Lower left:The yarn cake that was once a sock.Das fertige Knäuel, mit dem losen Faden zum aus der Mitte ziehen.


Now I "only" have to start knitting the socks!

So much work to rescue the yarn. As I am still fairly new to knitting, I learned very late, that it is not advisable to unravel and then directly knit the yarn :-DDD I made a sweater and was so surprised, that the unravelled yarn knitted up into an ugly and irregular fabric. You should have written this post 1,5 years back :-D

Wow! It is amazing!
