AUGUST 2025 // SUMMER AT THE LAKE

The glassy, clear, and refreshing feel of a dip in the lake... the perfect thing to cool down on a hot, sunny August day.

These blue, green, and aqua colours turned out beautifully on the double sock blank. When you dye a sock blank, the knitted stitches work like a bit of a natural resist and creates some lighter spots in the yarn. So when you unravel the yarn, the colours look almost speckled — like a ray of sunshine hitting the water and glittering in the light.

The August Box Includes:

  • One SweetGeorgia Double Sock Blank in Summer at the Lake (425 yards / 388 m per 4 oz / 115g skein; 80% Superwash Merino Wool, 20% Nylon)
  • A colour inspiration story and a guide to knitting and crochet project ideas designed to showcase the unique qualities of that month's yarn
  • Curved Cable Needles by COCOKNITS

Samples shown: Creekside Cables Cowl and matching socks knit on a circular sock machine (CSM).

As the SweetGeorgia Blog, read about this month's colourway at the colour reveal post as well as find details on the Creekside Cables Cowl project.

Summer at the Lake

I am sure my rating would be a 5 if I understood what I was purchasing. The problem is definitely all at my end. I did not know what a sock blanket was, although the photo should have told me. I thought you were showing it knitted up, to demonstrate the lucious colour changes. So it was a shock to me when it arrived already knitted. I wanted to make Andrea Mowry’s Ooey Gooey Cowl. So I took it with me to my LYS to see what Alpaca they had on stock that I could pair it with. They told me to just knit off the blank. I’m not thrilled with my tension and wonder if it is because of the kinky yarn? Or doing 2 handed knitting with Alpaca/silk blend? Or a combination of both?
I DO love the colour.
