Yarn PrOn

I've been plugging away at some of my KIPs so I don't have anything really astounding to show off. But I have been buying yarn lately. What great therapy! Here's a pic of some new sock yarn that looks beautiful in the basket and will take me through the Spring and all the up-coming Lacrosse games and practices:
Clockwise from left,
  • Trekking XXL in a colorway very similar to my Jaywalkers done with Briar Rose Fibers , (still on the needles). I seem to be drawn to this camo-ish brown combo. Got this yarn from a nice LYS, Granny's Yarn Shoppe.
  • Woolarina superwash wool in Blue Thistle - check out the 10% off coups - we LOVE coups!
  • Sweet Georgia Yarns Speed Demon Sock Yarn in River - heard she's taking a break so I wanted to grab a hank and experience what others have said about this great yarn. Got it from The Point on Bedford St. in Greenwich Village.
  • Duet Sock Yarns in Chocolate Fantasy - a solid for the heel included and it's a DK weight so I'm going to be making DK Dimple Socks with this one.
Just noticed son's Lego box in the backround. That's another UFO.
