I love this! I love Knit Picks, Kelley and the gang so I'm sure this community will be grand.
I live in the mountains between LA and Bakersfield in CA. We have 2.5 acres, a pony, 2 dogs and 2 cats. I knit daily and stay home teaching my children who are 11 and 12. We love to dye, knit, sew, crochet, cross stitch, embroider, quilt, you name it. We really love socks and lace knitting. I do test knitting for some large and some small yarn companies on the side and I sell a bit of hand dyed yarns, sock bags and what not on my site.
Hi, Wendy,
I grew up at Tejon Ranch, not far from you, and went to El Tejon School before traveling to Bakersfield for high school. Imagine my surprise to randomly find your profile in the list! Sounds like you have a busy life. I am a new grandma and live in Northern California.
Happy knitting!

Hi Wendy- when I went to start the Aquatic FI sweater, I realized the same thing- that the colorway had to be figured out from the photo on the website. So I have been working on the colorway just by looking at the picture of the sweater, I think I almost have it. I'm not sure still about a couple colors. It would be great if we could find where KP had simply listed the order of colors they had used.
Wendy: - I didn't even know what I was doing when I left a message.... thank you for finding me..
I am so new to this.
Okay, so the blanks have to be dyed. Can you give me an idea of the "gauge" of the yarn? They sound pretty "fingering" type? Would love a suggestion
of the many yarns on knitpicks for size 5 needle sox, if you can make one. Am wanting to order needles, too, so will wait to hear from you. Thanks!
