Longies, some socks, lots of dyeing, and an oops…

I finished these a bit over a week ago for a friend of mine online. I love how they came out..

I also finished my sister’s socks (and iPhone sock) but as they are currently on their way to her, and she won’t get them for a few days yet, I’m only posting a B&W picture of them.. because I can’t spoil the surprise for her

I dyed up some playsilks for my kids… which was fun, and I’m super thrilled with how they came out.

I also dyed a TON of yarn over the weekend, but no pics of that quite yet.. I want to be able to get them all photographed together, but I broke one of the pegs on my skeiner, so until I either figure something else out or get a replacement for it, that is put on hold for a while.

I also lots of yarn in the mail this past week… some really awesome stuff from my friend Lamar at …a time to dye – I got some of the much coveted new colorway “Andrew” (with trim!) on Rambouillet in exchange for knitting said Andrew a pair of shorties, and a really fun colorway called “Kindness” on beaverslide.

Then from Leidy at Western Sky Knits, a colorway called “Happy” on Cestari Fine Merino. I think it will make an absolutely gorgeous pair of shorties for Odin.

And because it looked like a lot of fun, I got some of the new Noro Kureyon Sock yarn..

Not sure when I’ll get around to making anything with either of those, but they’re a welcome addition to the stash, regardless
