I know they exist, but what are they like to make?
What are they like to wear?
Are they just as comfortable as knitted socks?
Is there any patterns you would recommend for beginners?
Is it best to make them out of cotton, or it doesn't matter?
Sorry for all the questions, thank you in advance for helping me out :)
They are great! Use sockyarn for the best pair of socks and fit. You can use wool too just use a larger hook so its more stretchy, but i do recommend sockwool. They are super fast to make and extremely easy. Patterns freely available for socks.
