Sample Socks for Claudia

My knitting buddy, Claudia, is the manager of a delightful yarn store in north Seattle called A New Yarn.  To find out more about the store and the special work they are doing please click on the link and go visit their website.  I am knitting these socks as a sample for the store so knitters can see the Pagewood Farm sock yarn knit up.  I am using their Yukon blend that is 20% bamboo, 70% washable merino and 10% nylon.  I love knitting with this yarn; it feels really good and the picture really doesn't do the colorway justice.  I like this yarn so much that I am going to knit myself a couple of pairs with it...  I love to wear colorful handknit socks with my Dansko clogs :)

Very pretty! I checked out the website for the yarn store, I didn't know they were a not for profit AND for a very important cause. Good job getting involved with this...I wonder if theres any not for profit thing I could donate jewelry to....? I'll have to look into that.

P.S. You're making me jealous of your blog, and your drive to post all the time...hmmmm...
