oh boy!!

there are quite a few knitting blogs out there

i have 6 or 8 that i follow every day ~ i like to see what they're knitting, what's happening in their world ~ i mostly lurk, commenting when i have questions or they've made me laugh out loud!!

Stitches of Violet is one of the daily stops ~ yep! i actually have a folder that its name is "daily read blogs"

she has such a great blog...........lots of info on knitting, socks too! and lots of wonderful pics of the world around her.....i love the nesting box checks in the spring.......i like her doggies! and all the birds that land right where she can get the best pics!


~ she held a contest for her 5 years of blogging and offered up some sock yarn from SlackFord Studio ~ amazingly ~~ i won a skein!



it's so pretty ~~ don't ya think???


there were some lovely stitch markers with it!

(and i visited the shop - i like the BRIGHT yellow, the BLAZING pink - i see them in my future!)

didn't get picks of it on the tinkertoy swift ~ but it's wound now and ready to become some sockies!!!

Ms Marguerite ~ Thank You!! for letting all of us into your world ~~~

One of my favorite things - getting new sock yarn in the mail.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.
