Summery socks March 26 2014, 6 Comments
Sometimes, a yarn comes out of the dye pots that I just can't part with.
I try not to make a habit of this, but I couldn't resist this skein of Entwist.
It's becoming a pair of Hermoine's Everyday Socks - with just a little texture to break up the variegation.
I'm loving the transitions between the candy pinks, apricot, citrine, teal, pale lemon, deep rose and spring green - just a few stitches of each colour.
It's very naughty and very indulgent, but it feels so refreshing to have a portable project after THE BLANKET.
I can always make more...
Although achieving these colours again could be a challenge.

oh. my. goodness.that skein of yarn is my fraouvite colour.that pattern is one i have been oogling. that bag contains two of my three fraouvite colour combinations, and almost ALL my fraouvite colours. oh my!my fraouvite bag? i can’t choose just one! i love the cube socks box, the box tote (i’ve made a couple in the same style, so much fun!), and the large fortune cookie. even that list was hard to narrow down…

This yarn would make a wonderful pair of spring socks. I hope you dye more of it:) I just found your site from reading Jen Arnall-Culliford’s blog and would love to try your yarn. I will watch for an update and hope that I can order some then.

What a perfect match of yarn and pattern, you should definitely try to dye up more of that colour way ;-)
