Caved and Started Denmarks
The Postman is Here Too

I couldn't wait....Mystery Sock clue 4 never came. I am tired of the colorwork socks and really wanted to start a pair of 1 color simple cable socks!

Starting Denmarks

Denmark Socks designed by Nancy Bush from Knitting on the Road in Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sport "Old Rose" on a 3mm 40" circular needle. Look at the cute little nupps at the bottom of the ribbing - she adds such nice little extra special touches to her sock patterns!

Only 1 more inch of 1 X 1 ribbing and I will be to the fun part of my Aran Watch Cap.

Starting Aran Watch Cap

I was just ready to post this when the mailman came - I quickly took some pictures so you could see the loot that arrived today!

from Kimberly
Can you imagine having all of this in one package arrive at your doorstep? Kimberly had a contest to see who could guess the date she would finish this unbelievable fair isle wrap and my guess was the closest! On the day I won this very generous prize I had just kneeled on 1 of my little Brittany Birch needles and crushed it - talk about perfect timing! See the smaller skein of yarn? It is hand spun by Kimberly - Romney wool ..She has a new Etsy Shop. Oh how I love blue yarn...Thank you for everything, Kimberly!

 

from Julie

 

Julie and her team (Betty's Boops) walk each year for Light the Night to to support her close friend, Betty, and raise funds to help the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in their efforts to find new treatments for Leukemia, Lymphoma, and Myeloma. My sister-in-law also has Multiple Myeloma so I have a special place in my heart for Julie's fund raiser. Thank you Julie - for all the energy you put into this cause and for my new beautiful sock yarn!
