I recently decided to knit some new socks, in an attempt to decrease my sock yarn stash. This is Regia 4-fadig yarn, 80% wool 20% nylon, or something like that. As I almost finished my first sock and went to get the second skein, and ...NO GOTS. Wha? So I am putting out a plea. Does anyone have a skein of this stuff that they would sell me? I searched the internet, on Ravelry, and asked at my knitting group. Apparently it is no longer a current color. Who knows when I bought this, and even if it was in this country. I do remember buying yarn in Switzerland in 2007. Geesh. Am I just now knitting it? Yup. If you have it please let me know, email me.
In the meantime I am keeping my needles busy with this pair, for which I have sufficient yarn, phew!
And I have to show you my friend Ellen's Knitters-Birkenstocks. Aren't they a hoot?
It rained like crazy last night which is just what the doctor ordered. I must stay out of the garden today.
I have plenty to keep me busy indoors.
Love the little lamb~
ReplyDeleteMel, you need to find a one legged friend or start a new fad of miss-matched socks.
ReplyDeleteWhat about if you knit the top part of the other sock with what you have leftover, then the bottom of the sock a coordinating plain colour ...... or bands of plain and the variegated till the variegated is all gone.......
ReplyDeleteKind of like patchwork!
Hey Mel, I am all about that mix and match that Judy suggested. Very cool
ReplyDeleteI "third" Judy! Use what you've got (on the top or the foot), then join something that plays nice with it.
