I'm preparing for January's start of Ravelry's Cookie A. Knit-A-Long.
We're knitting from her second sock book
Knit-Sock-Love
I'm hoping that the wonderful patterns from Cookie will show their glory with these lighter colors.
The Minty Green is Heritage by Cascade Yarns
Sock yarn 75% Merino Superwash Wool, 25% Nylon
The Yummy Pink right below the Minty is the very same yarn content and weight.
The Peachy Apricot
is Jojoland
Melody
100% wool Superwash
That'll be enough yarn to keep me happy for three pair of sox
[well, maybe]
This Luscious Lavenders is by
malabrigo
It's kettle dyed
sock weight
Merino Wool
Superwash which means, of course all four of these yarns can be machine washed. Yipee ! ! ! !
I don't want to use any yarn this dark for my KAL sox but it is soooo soft against skin
that I decided as soon as I spied it that I'd work this into another scarf.
Come on Winter show us what you got!
I've got my malabrigo to keep me warm.
Haven't pick a scarf pattern yet.

Hubby's day-after check-up was this morning and everything is going very well.
I think he's happy with the results.
Happy Holiday Hugs
Gerry - so glad about the 'day after' check up. I like the peachy yarn for me please.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying one of Melody's eternity scarves in that blue/green self striping yarn. I'm not sure, I'm entirely happy with it yet. Jury is still out.
Hugs - Marie
Good to know that Ronald is doing good.
ReplyDeleteYour yarns are very nice. Looking forward to see the end result.
That yarn is simply gorgeous. Glad I got to "touch" it a few weeks ago. So glad that everything is going very well for Ron. Can he tell a difference in how he sees things yet?
ReplyDeleteI am delighted by the colors.
ReplyDeleteI gave this blog a little tweet today. Hope you don't mind.
Like the little saprrow with the big voice too.
