Will 1 ball make 1 pair of socks?

Apr 13th, 2015 at 11:36:05 AM PDT by

To be honest I haven't made a pair of socks in years, but according to my book (depending on the length you want the top and the size of sock you make) a basic sock takes 3.5 oz(270 yards) if using size 3 double pointed needles. This is for a pair, I hope this helps.

No, not really. I don't knit, but try and get sock yarn for a friend that does make them for homeless shelters.

Does it say anywhere on the labels?

Sorry for the late reply I didn't see this comment until now I opened another ball of the same kind of yarn and didn't see a pattern so I googled it and found patterns that called for as little as 90 yards and some that could take up to 460 yards depending on the length of the top of the sock. If your friend knits ankle socks these should be fine but I won't say 100% definitely that they can as there are variable in how they knit, what size needles and sock length though. But should you decide to bid and you do win then at least they can make socks for kids... or beanies. Either way I admire them we need more people like this in the world :) Happy crafting and have a wonderful day!!!

If I may offer some help...what I have seen recently is that 1 of these 50 g balls would make a pair of children's socks, but it would take 2 balls to make a pair of adult socks.

Thank you for the input, as I said I haven't made socks in years. This is yarn from a friend of my moms who passed away a few years ago and I just couldn't bear to watch it sit in boxes... Happy crafting and have a wonderful day!!!
