Feeling Pretty
Mmmmmm. Pretty colors...
I promise to talk about something else after this, but I just had to share my recent sock yarn madness. This is the stash accumulated, mostly, during the past month...Largely rewards for meeting a goal I set for myself :-)
The two "cakes" are Lorna's Laces Watercolors and Neighborhood Fiber Co. (NFC) Brightwood. The skeins, clockwise from the top are: Claudia Hand Painted Chocolate Cherry; Sundara Yarns' Cherry Blossoms; NFC's Brookland (teal and purple); a gorgeous cranberry-colored semi-solid from NFC (I forget the color's name!); and Claudia's Pink Dot.
And, to quote Basie, "once more once," before they head to the post office today--the oh-so-pretty Orchid Socks (AKA Simply Lovely Lace Socks in Koigu KPPPM)...complete with sewn-down picot edge.
Please be advised: These socks are meant for far smaller feet than mine! (As you can tell.)
Finally, because Maggie's been getting all the attention lately...
This is Katja, looking pretty and pensive. Despite her precious "Fancy Feast" appearance, she's actually a hellion--a wannabe barn cat. We love that about her.

Oh, that sock yarn! Yum! And such pretty lacy socks! Mmmmm...
Ooh yum, Lorna's Laces. Lorna's Laces is one of my favorite sock yarns. I think your color picks are very close to mine--pinks of all kinds, with a little bit of purples thrown in. Excellent choices! :-)
