First, gifts from Stephanie (left) and Adrienne (right).
The painting is from Toadbriar. If you visit her site, you will be enchanted. Believe me.
The tea towel is so cute that I can not possibly use it for anything as mundane as drying dishes!
Thank you, dear friends! Your gifts cheered me immesurably.
This is the third repeat of the Tidal Wave socks. It's a lovely pattern, so easy (even for me) and so soothing. I've almost conquered my clumsiness with slip/knit/psso; when I'm still clumsy, I have almost figured out how to fix it without breaking into hives.
Everyone else who has knitted socks from this beautiful yarn has ended up with stripes. I love the way this is pooling - and I hope I'll be able to duplicate the effect for the other sock...
I hope you all are having a happy, safe Labor Day!

I think if you cast on so that your first cast on loop is in the middle of a color repeat then you will get pooling. That's my theory anyway!
I love that pooling!
It looks lovely:)! It's just right.
The towels are darling! And the sock is coming along marvelously. I want that pattern for my blue sock yarn, I think.
What an enchanting blog site that is!
I looove the rabbits towel and painting too.
Your sock is looking good.
I like how the colors are meshing.
P.S. I gave you an award on my blog this morning.
Oh the socks look great and what a sweet site! I grew up with lots of rabbits - real ones. They are very sweet - real or drawn.
Very Pretty!!! Love the way it's turning out...
And the new yarn is on it's way, too!
(((hugs)))
Cuuuute socks! I do like that color pooling.
Thanks for popping by my blog - come visit it again!
Cute socks! The pattern is really lovely.
Bunnies! Who knew you'd like bunnies? ;)
How about setting up a TIdal Wave sock swap - I'd join.
