A dear dear friend sent me a quick note to expect a little surprise in my mailbox. We live across the country and once in awhile we tuck things into the mail to surprise each other. Okay….let’s be real…we are 30 something adults with careers and kids. We try to remember each other’s birthdays and end up sending packages 6 months later, lol.
Well, this yarny beauty showed up in my mailbox!
She claims this was a combination of late night Instagram skimming with wine plus the favorable US to Canadian exchange rate. But she thought I needed a pick-me-up skein of self-striping sock yarn. This is even a new to me dyer! I have seen the Cozy Knitter yarn on several podcasts and thought it was amazing. This is a Bliss sock set in “Celebrate the Night”. Jellybean was ecstatic that the contrasting heel/toe/cuff skein was purple. That’s his FAVORITE.
If my Smooth Operator Socks go well and fit like I hope then this skein may just well end up being SOS socks as well!
Happy Knitting!!

Isn’t squishy mail the best?
I love the colors and that it comes with a contrast color. I have yet to purchase one of these sets.
The Cozy Knitter podcasts with Yarn Enabler 🙂 I have both of their yarns and they are truly scrumptious! Love the colorway! They would make awesome SOS socks 😀
Socks socks socks: all my favourite blogs seem to be knitting ’em.
I never have: there ! – it’s out.
Why not, say … shawls ? Wouldn’t that wonderful licorice all-sorts yarn and its partner make a fun shawl …?
What a great friend!
Self-striping sock yarn is the BEST! Thanks for the introduction to the Cozy Knitter.
do you do socks for Jelly bean?
He’s more in a stuffie appreciation phase so no, I haven’t done socks for him.
