Gloss sock yarns!

So I also ordered a few colourways of the Gloss sock yarns OMG! I heart them! They are really great to knit with and I don't know why I had it in my head that all of self-striping yarns were the way to go?! I will definitely be ordering more of this yarn, I just hope that they come out with more "feminine" colours.

New Lace Yarns!

I am so excited about all of the new lace yarns @ KnitPicks! And I spoke to a customer service rep who said there was a "Fairytale" line coming out soon, with one entitled "Wicked Witch" in black and green colors! I am so excited! I will be spending the entire Summer/Spring knitting lace shawls for myself! I have already ordered 4 of the new colorways and plan to order more next week. Thank you Kelley, I love you for making knitting so affordable for a single mom!
