Two Socks Passing in the Mail

Christy is a Tricky Girl! In a bizarre twist of fate, as my Hurricane Sister was knitting a sock for me, I was knitting a sock for her! Cindi packed my swap box with loads of things to make hurricanes a happier event!

It is hidden from William Henry.

All kinds of stuff to keep me entertained the next time the power is out. I am not waiting for the power to go out to finish this pair of socks though. The pattern is the interesting and appropriately named Tidal Wave Socks by Deby Lake!

Looks like a heavy chop to me.

The yarn is the Anne Shaefer Yarn. It’s got a little bit of mohair in it that gives it a really pleasant halo. I am thrilled with all my goodies – thanks so much Cindi! And many thanks again to Christy for organizing another great (and hopefully storm-preventing) Hurricane Swap Party!

Stay tuned to Yarn Miracle (home of the non-traditional swap) for the details on an upcoming Summer Event! I know you’re asking yourself: Will the fun never end?
