Sock Made from my Monarch yarn

I've been going through photos tonight and I saw this Eagle's Flight Sock that Maria made for me as a sample some time ago. I wanted to post it on my website, but I don't seem to be able to find the page where I post pictures of socks made from my yarn. (it's late!).

So I decide to post it here instead. It really is beautiful and I normally pass the pattern out for free at shows with a yarn purchase.

It was knit with the New Country colorway in Monarch.

Anyway, here it is...and thank you again, Maria! You are really great! :)

Events and Busy, Busy! :)

I'm getting ready this week to go down to Black Sheep Gathering in Eugene, OR.


I'll have a booth space there, so be sure to look me up.
I should have a machine there for sale, too. This one.
Not the best picture. Come by and see it for yourself! :)

I'll be setting up on Thursday and at the booth on Friday.
Saturday and Sunday my daughter and her fiance will be tending the booth. They've both been helping me out here lately with the business.

I have to leave Friday night to catch a flight to Indiana where we'll be having our CSMSA annual conference.
CSMSA stands for Circular Sock Machine Society of America. Donna's done a great job of organizing it this year.

Oh!! When you're at BSG be sure to check out my new yarns!! I haven't even gotten them on my website yet. Blue Face Leicester Superwash wool in 3 different weights - Lace, Sock, and DK weight. It's a wonderful yarn - so soft and lustrous, yet so strong, too.
I'll also have some colors in my new Angel Wings - a silk/merino wool laceweight yarn.
More new yarns to see, but I need to get back to dyeing!

I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone at BSG AND the conference!! :)

Lynx Yarn!

I'm really excited about this yarn! I've been working on it for quite some time now.

I call it my Lynx yarn because of the special way that it's made.

It comes in different fiber combinations, but this latest is in Australian wool and nylon.

Here's a picture of the socks that I made with it on my sock machine.

I was extremely pleased with how beautifully it fluffed up (fulled) after I threw it in the washer and dryer!
