More New Sock Yarns

If you're looking for a new spring project, check out these yummy sock yarns we just got in. The first is Cascade Heritage in solids and handpaints, 75% washable merino wool, 25% nylon, 437 yards per skein. Next we have the luscious Online Supersocke Silk in some of the sweetest spring colors. Imagine your favorite Easter basket stacked with spring-colored eggs. Then imagine those eggs turning into balls of yarn - that's what these silky yarns remind me of. They're perfect for knitting those intricate Cookie A socks from her new book that should be here this week. Supersocke Silk is 220 yards per ball, 55% merino, 20% silk and 25% nylon. Finally, you'll want to take a look at the new colors of Misti Hand Paint Sock. There's one with lots of purple and green that's calling my name!

And don't forget, sock yarns are not just for socks! Think of the beautiful lacy shoulder wraps you can make with these - summer's a-comin'!
