New Socks!
Look at these gorgeous, I mean GORGEOUS, pair of new socks that just came off the needles a few minutes ago! They are made of the softest Marino wool I have ever had the pleasure of touching. And the colors? Turquoise, purple, rust, chartreuse – oh my! They were an absolute joy to make. I started them a few months ago (September maybe?), but have worked on them off and on over the past few months. I had to get them done because I have a very important pair of socks to make for a very important woman and I want to use my favorite wood needles, which were occupied with these until now. The wool came from a St. Paul dyer named Aiesha Celia.

These really are beautiful, Boyd. The softness of the wool also appeal to me.

Mouthwatering, Boyd. The colors are keen.

Gorgeous!!!! I love the colors. I’m almost done with my second pair. I had to be in the neighborhood of Needlework Unlimited today and guess what — yes, two more skeins of wonderful sock yarn in my growing stash. Help me God!
