I'm a Sucker for a Bargain

Although I don't necessarily need to pinch pennies, I cannot resist a bargain. So, when Webs sent an email informing me of their Regia sock sale I immediately went to the site and started shopping. There were many attractive options but ultimately I purchased two skeins of 4ply Color, two skeins of 4 ply Stretch Color and one skein of 4ply Ringel Color. All this beautiful yarn including shipping for less than $30. Who could resist? I currently have enough yarn for 17 pairs of socks so I'm done shopping for sock yarn, regardless of how good the bargain is, until some finished socks are produced.


I'm particularly looking forward to knitting the ringel. Aren't those skinny stripes awesome?

Presenting two more finished objects:

Pattern: Fiona's Friends Lamb's Pride Hat for Infants & Kids
Needles: Clover Bamboo DPN Size 7
Yarn: Lamb's Pride Worsted - Aran
Comments: This hat is the infant size and was a fun knit with a two row pattern which was easy to remember. I'll be making more of these.




Pattern: Fiona's Friends Lamb's Pride Hat for Infants & Kids
Needles: Clover Bamboo DPN Size 7
Yarn: Lamb's Pride Worsted - Supreme Purple ( almost a full skein)
Comments: This hat is the kid size and was also a fun knit with 8 more stitches and a lot more rows.

Just received my partners for the Stitch Marker swap and I'm looking forward to making markers for Lia and Sulah.
