A Sockpal that Rocks

     I arrived at home this afternoon to find that my Sockpaloooza package had arrived.   Many thanks to Cynthia for my gorgeous, Lorna's Laces Lime Green Elfine's Socks.  I put them on as soon as I got them and I got several compliments on them at work tonight.  A few people asked me if I'd knit them myself, but I gave Cynthia full credit.  Cynthia also generously included a skein of Fleece Artist Merino Sock Yarn in the package.  I love it.  I've never heard of this yarn before (like Cynthia, it's Canadian) and I look forward to knitting with it.   This is the first swap/exchange I've done and I thank both Cynthia and Tawana (for whom I knit) for making this a great first experience!

The socks are beautiful. And the new yarn looks like it will be fun to kit with.

Glad you like them Courtney and I am glad they fit so well. It was such a pleasure to make them for you! I will be eager to see what you make with the Fleece Artist (it is such nice yarn!). It is great to be able to leave a message and not just be a lurker!

I LOVE THOSE!! and i LOVE that yarn. that yarn is inspiring me to make socks. I might have to go and find some of that yarn. of course it is from canada. maybe i should just move to canada. for so many reasons, that would rock.
