Getting Lucky in Anchorage!

I knew that would get your attention! Sorry - totally knitting related as "Lucky" refers to this month's Blue Moon Fiber Arts Rockin' Sock Club sock kit. I love coming home to yarn goodies waiting on the doorstep. I've been dancing around the house singing "I Got Lucky! I Got Lucky!" - poor DH, totally disappointed.

The colorway is called "Lucky" and is ab-fab one of my favorite colors - just right for the month of March. Of course, I've already cast on & have almost completed a pair of green socks for March, so these may have to wait a smidge.

Are you anxious to see what is actually inside the package? Come on, I know you wanna see! If not - shield your eyes or quickly click elsewhere- don't say you haven't been fairly warned.


Ain't it purdy?

Ready for my close-up.

I haven't knit with the STR mediumweight yet and am anxious to try. As soon as I finish the Penillyn socks (hopefully by the end of next weekend - I'm shooting for March credit in SAM5),
I'll be casting on with gusto!

Okay - off to read bedtime stories & do some serious back-blogging.

Ciao~

Love your new STR yarn. Love seeing all the awesome socks you've knit. It really makes me want to join the Rockin' Sock Club. I also have a medium weight STR yarn and can't wait to see what you do with yours. See you at our kids school!
