- Allagash yarn! I originally planned a sweater and realized that I didn't like the look - thick and thin isn't what I prefer and someday I will learn! An opportunity presented itself. KnitPal Mitzi asked for a donation for the upcoming auction to benefit some very deserving people. I thought and thought, dug through my stash and came up with - Allagash! Certainly, someone would fall in love with the texture and warmth this yarn could provide. After an exhausting hunt for the perfect pattern (and two failed attempts at something appropriate), I decided on Bobblicious. How perfect! I plan to omit the seams and allow the piece to function as a wrap.
It is 42" and I am nearing the finish line. I can't wait to finish and block it. Mitzi will be so proud!
Maybe you'll be a bit more impressed with these socks. I could not resist the funky green color dubbed Limestone. The yarn is Nature Spun by Brown Sheep Company and is 100% wool. I know, hand wash...but the color was just so cool!

very cool site. on a personal note: I like the profile picture, personally, I would have shampooed first, the wild look is like so totally last year.
I am very intrigued by the color you chose for that wonderful pair of socks. I would have never thought you would pick that, until i saw you already knitting on them. Way to go MOM!!
Hmmmmm....
Hey, those socks look like they have had actual feet in them!
Also, could you give some commentary about the tile the socks and the other thingy are on?? What a perfoect color!
Thank goodness for family and friends for they will always tell you the truth!
...Thingy? sounds like you'd had too much beer!
Hello Knitarella, I just happened to stumble on your blog because I was paging through next blog, next blog, next blog and yours popped up and it was in English, can you imagine? And I was just so thrilled because I knit too. And I so desperately need a knitting friend. Will you send me some yarn? I live far away from you. Your new knitting friend.
