Sock Pair #3 is D-O-N-E. I am amazed at how fast socks are flying off my needles! I have a 1.5 hour commute during the day, so socks are the perfect project. They are small, portable, and these socks did not require a lot of looking at the pattern.
I made these lovelies with a skein that I found at my former LYS (Princess Animal).I say former as the store just closed. It is such a bummer, but I bet it is super difficult to be a yarn store today.
The yarn is a lovely 100% Superwash Merino Wool that was hand-painted.The yarn was made by a local company called The Royale Hare. I really enjoyed working with this yarn. It feels great to the touch and the colors are so vivid.
