he first round of this year's Kit Love Sock Club has arrived. 
I've been sitting on putting pictures up for a while so that everyone could get theirs. Alice has had her own yarn spun and hand dyed it all. It's called Sokkusu-X, a lovely cashmere mix and it's heavenly; squishy yet firm and soft. Deluxe!
purple with a touch of muted gold and a splash of grey....gorgeous! The colour way is 'Corallina' and I have to decide whether I can make it into the allotted sock pattern or save it for something else...I'm not sure I can slip it into a shoe....we'll see.
So, it was off to the swift and ball winder and I am glad to report that it wound like a dream into the most

Oooh lovely. I am glad to have seen this as I was planning a post about this gorgeous yarn too but wanted to wait the right amount of time. Your pics are lovely. I think I might knit a different pattern with the yarn too - not sure yet. Interestingly mine doesn't seem to have any yellow/gold in it at all just pinks and purples and a little grey. But I love it.

I love the yarn too, I'm trying to knot these socks but I having unpicked them already as I treated the SW's as 2 stitches instead of one. Now I am worrying about getting a toe nipple! haha!
ReplyDeleteDid you use a lens baby in your photos? I love the selective focus ;)
