Over the holidays I found a little time to dye some yarn. Two of the skeins looked like this:
I sent them off to Silviaol, who offers her knitting services on etsy and I promptly received back two lovely pairs of socks. Unable to contain myself, I had to snap pictures and share them before even taking time to wash and block them properly. It's so much fun to see new colorways knitted up.
I love hand knit socks – especially this very cold winter. These are lovely.
The weather this year has really made me a utilitarian knitter! I had a prolific knitting month last year, but it was almost all very practical things — mittens, hats, cowls — and only one sweater. Its fun to watch the kids get dressed in the morning and to see everyone put on a different hand knit item. We are a very colorful family right now!
