I pulled out the easter egg dyes on Sunday and came out with this:
easter egg dyed yarn

It’s some crewel/needlework wool I picked up at the thrift shop a while back. I love how the colors came out!

also, as of Monday night:
sock heel
join me in the heel admiration society.

first sock done!
one sock done, one to go

slightly wonky toe
the toe looks a bit wonky. will have to practice a bit more…

yesterday I finished swatching my Wool of the Andes - now, to measure and abuse the swatch. then I can start my sweater.

last night I strung the beads for sock two. so far today I’ve managed to get thru the cast on, first beady bit, and one row of lace. more to be done on the bus tonight. I’m a little worried that I’m going to run out of yarn though. anyone have some leftover Dale Baby Ull in the purple shown above? (I have a feeling I’ll run out 3 rows away from grafting the toe or something ridiculous like that. *sigh*)
