the yarn porn post!

So pretty! Not shown: karbonz dpns in 2.25mm and 2.5mm and one set of dreamz dpns in 2.25mm.

I'm not going to post pictures of all the individual yarns, because some just did not look good/accurate. I'm not a photographer and not interested in setting up the perfect shot, I use my old point and click or my phone and hope for the best. But I will share the couple of individual shots that turned out okay.


Dream in Color Smooshy in Sundown Orchid


Heritage 150 paints in Cornsilk (more yellow and less cream than I expected)


 Valley Yarns Huntington in Mustard


Malabrigo sock in Aguas


Pediboo Frog in Bright Pink


Madelinetosh Tosh Sock in Opaline (the picture does not do this justice)


SweetGeorgia Tough Love Sock in Storm Chaser


 Ty-Dy Dots Sock in Cream (I love the idea of polka dot yarn ad don't like intarsia, so obviously I had to try this)



All this brand new yarn and I haven't even really knit much this week. I had cast on the heritage silk paints that I picked up at Wabi Sabi in Ottawa, but I left it in my bag and only knit when I was out. It was a bit of a rough week, culminating in having to take Libby (cat) to the vet on the suspicions that she has a UTI. I did knit in the waiting room, finished the leg of the sock and I'm at the heel flap now.
 Libby is on antibiotics every 8hrs, and morphine every 12hrs.
