Love this

Ooh. Pretty. I am smitten on tweed

Live and learn right? Boot socks are great. Once I made a pair too big and didn’t want to frog so I wore a thin pair of socks under them and they worked out great on snow days.

Did you try it on? My colorwork socks are knit on 72 stitches and they always look huge. I panic too but they always seem to fit fine. (I use 64 stitches for non colorwork socks)

Sweet! That’s good to know. I usually knit with wool but I love their yarns too

Brioche is on my list of techniques to learn. That is one thing I haven’t tried yet

I recently read that after 20 years, Miss Babs is retiring. She sold her business to her #2 person and they will continue to run it for her. While I will miss Miss Babs, I still have a lot of her yarn to enjoy while they make the transition. Hope the new person running it will be an exciting change

It’s like that sometimes isn’t it

So sorry. Hopefully it works out like you want.

Yowza skeins at 560 yards are no joke to wind. I have 3. I plan to make Candyland.

I made Stephen West’s Glowhair Frost using Miss Babs 2 ply held with Miss Babs Moonglow. That picture is before blocking because I forgot to take an after photo.
