My stash has reached the point of being a S.A.B.L.E, "stash acquired beyo
The sock yarn is 40% alpaca and 60% acrylic, which I don't think I've ever seen before. It's very soft and light, and I'm sure very warm as well. The lace yarn is 100% baby alpaca and is incredibly soft.
My January pair of socks, is about 75% done, but that didn't stop me from starting a pair of the alpaca. Well, heck, what's the point of being a process knitter if you deny yourself your process addiction.
I've joined a group on Ravelry that knits socks from Nancy Bush's "Knitting Vintage Socks." I'm about two weeks behind already, so that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
The January socks are made with Regia's line of Kaffe Fassett colorways. The colors are very nice and the striping is unusual, but I had a heck of a time, finding a starting point that would be the same on both balls of yarn. I've not had the problem with Regia before.
