lots of color!
a little color on a cold january day
noro kureyon sock yarn. i'm actually so-so on this yarn. i am a big fan of the colorway, but how it is working up and the yarn itself don't do much for me. i worry about second sock syndrome on this one. but looks cute in my pouch no? :)
i have another rainbow-ey project on the needles. a simple 1x1 rib like the child's scarf in last minute. 2 colors of noro. this is the 5th scarf like this i have knit since the fall of 2006. i can't resist finding out how the colors will play out. i'll post pics when i am further along.
i had a few stash additions over the holidays too. i kept meaning to post this fabulous yarn that naomi gave me for christmas. i love it! it is from sunshine yarns. i don't think the picture does it justice and i just wish i had cast on with this instead of the kureyon.
my mom also surprised me with a skein of str for christmas. my mom knows me well, i never even mentioned this color to her and it is my fav colorway (i'm a green gal).
i was also the very lucky recipient of blue moon sock blockers from ellen. i have a thing for moons so these things are just perfect. i have used them several times and plan to hang them in my office when not in use so i can enjoy them even when they aren't blocking socks (which isn't often!).

Lucky girl! I have been eyeing those exact sock blockers for some time now. They always seem to be out of my size though.
Too bad about the Noro sock yarn. I like the way it's striping up, but when I saw the yarn in person, I wasn't too thrilled by it either.
What beautiful yarns! I love my sock blockers. I wish I could justify buying them in lots of sizes...
i'm way excited about the noro sock yarn and i do love that colorway you're knitting (except for that barbie flesh peach color that's coming up on your needles there ha!)
those sock blockers are really cute. i may have to get some.
I like the look of that Noro. So pretty. I'm excited to see what other colors pup up as you finish the sock.
