My birthday came and went in a flurry of laundry and stomach flu woes. We have had some unseasonable weather her in the Midwest and it’s really reeking havoc on our immune systems….at least in this house.
Nonetheless, my husband asked for some birthday suggestions and I sent him some names of new-to-me yarn dyers that I would like to have something from. He picked Shannon of Mudpunch. She’s Canadian and I hear her mentioned on several Canadian podcasts I listen to. The hubby chose a speckle sock set in her Tundra/Desert colorway.
The yarn has a great hand and the lovely green colors are something I wouldn’t normally choose. I can decide if this needs to be a two color shawl or a pair of socks with contrasting heels/toes/cuffs. I’ve never done the later (on purpose anyway) and the former is still relatively new to me.
I think this yarn needs to ruminate in the stash for awhile! Happy Knitting!!
What a great husband to get you yarn!
Belated happy birthday, and sorry it was a bit rough! Hopefully the beautiful yarn made up for it a little š
Happy belated birthday! I really love that speckled yarn. Hope it makes some cute socks!
You are lucky, my hubby wouldn’t get me “yarn stuff”. Mine thinks I have too much already š. Happy Birthday!!!
