Improvisation is all about being in the moment and letting everything go. Improv sock blanks ask you to do the exact same thing. These sock blanks are single knit, which means if you are making socks or mitts they will not match. You will want to be in the moment of your knitting, enjoying every stitch. You will also want to let go of any preconceived idea of what you think the finished object will look like. Many times it will be a surprise. These socks blanks are also a work of improvisation as they are all one of a kind, never to be repeated again.

Make sure that when you start knitting that you pull from the correct end. Also, your knit fabric will look a bit wrinkled, but it will block right out. Lastly, if you find that you don’t like knitting with yarn with the kink in it, you can unwind the blank and wash the yarn before knitting.
