YPF..........................Sweet Georgia Sock

This weeks yarn was a chance buy! It can be very hard to get Sweet Georgia yarn sometimes but by luck one day I was at the computer when the update was posted and I got these beauties!! Hot Pinks, Orange and White, lovely!!

A special pattern is required for these!

What would you suggest?

Hard Candy supersock yarn

It does remind me of candy, does it remind you of anything else? Hot pants? I had a pair in material with these colours in the pattern as a young child!!! I had the legs for it then.......

Christmas Crafty Stocking Wap

This was my parcel and gifts that Joy sent me for the Craftythreadsnyarn Christmas stocking swap.................

Isn't she a star!!

Unwrapped!!! Including STR JingleBell Rock yarn

Thoughtful items!!

My stocking!

The fabulous Cranford mitts that Joy knit especially for me!!

Joy I love them all and the STR is gorgeous, my photos so not do the intensity and vibrancy any justice! :)

"It's so green"

Bella Swan in Twilight complains that Forks is so green compared to Phoenix. I'm not complaining that these are too green, not at all. The intense golden green reminds me of thick moss on logs below the tree canopy of damp dark forests, beautiful.
