The first of two boxes from Hedgehog Fibres arrived this afternoon and was filled with Twist Sock.
80% Blue Faced Leicester wool and 20% nylon, superwash. Hard-wearing fingering weight yarn with a high twist in the ply. Great stitch definition, best suited for sock knitting. That tight twist will keep precious hand knit socks in shape wash after wash after wash. Soft, yet durable and machine washable. Best of both worlds!Lynn used Twist Sock for a pair of socks and loves the yarn. This was before blocking the second sock. I can't get a new picture because she is wearing them all the time.
LITLG posted a picture on Instagram that has me excited.
Loopy Mango has been shipped and should be here tomorrow afternoon. You could have a throw knit by Monday.
I'm unpacked, laundry is done and now it's time for a bit of knitting before bed.
