Emeline Sock & update
24 March 2011
On my agenda today was writing this blog post, plus about 15 other things. It's after 11pm now so I'm a tad late (unless you're on the West Coast!), but that's the way the mop flops, as my mama always says.
I'm having a big shop update in the morning! I've got lots of sock yarn, plus some DK weight.
This is Didot, which I named after a font. I've got one more named for a font in this update, called Ionic No. 5. It's similar, but different (yes, I'm aces at giving clues!).
I really love my Eulela DK - it's a 50/50 blend of Merino and silk and I just love the way it takes dye. So shiny! I've got 4 different colors coming tomorrow. This one is called Delicate Peach.
My new yarn base is called Emeline Sock. It's a 50/50 blend of Merino/silk. Soft and wonderfully lustrous. I can't wait to dye more up - just gorgeous! This is Foxtail Pine, one of my favorites. First I dye it gold, then I dye it green. Love!
I'm not the most patient person, so in the morning I'll grab my cup of coffee and turn the listings on. They're all ready to go!
For the next update I'll be dyeing worsted weight & sport.
The colors are so pretty....your work is beautiful Maya!!

love the yarns, but love "that's the way the mop flops" even more!
i am sooo going to start using that in my daily vernacular.
