  1. i so hope that i’m your pal, i love that yarn. but if i’m not , that’s ok, everyone has been choosing fantastic yarn for sockapalooza!!

  2. Beautiful, bright, cheery colors! I’m knitting a pair of socks with this brand at the moment and it is wonderful yarn.

  3. That is some great eye candy! LOVE the photos of the yarn in the white bowl…very striking! You should make them into note cards…just a thought.

    Hey, have you used the Patons wool before? Be careful when you wash them (like you wouldn’t be but you know what I mean) I made some really nice socks for my mom at Christmas and she just tossed them into the washer and dryer without a care in the world (no, she is not a knitter) and they came out felted. Now, my 4 year old daughter has some really nice felted sleeping socks :-)

    All’s well the ends well!

  4. Your very special socks are so cute and the one you’re doing for youself looks amazing. Not to forget the lovely yarn. You’ll make someone a very happy camper with it.

    Thanks so much for sharing this fabulous pictures.

  5. What a wonderful colorway you choose for your sockpal ! I sure hope you will be equally delighted with the socks I’m going to knit for you – so – reading this – consider yourself “claimed” !!

  6. I’ve been coveting the Carousel colour way at the Loopy Ewe. I’m generally not a yellow/orange/green but in something that bright and fun, how could you not love it?
