Happy Thursday

We have a new pair of socks in the store. I really wish that you could touch the screen and feel them. They are super soft.
Pattern: Monkey Socks (free on knitty.com)
Yarn: One skein of Lorna's Laces Solemate. The colour is Hampstead.

The really cool thing about Solemate is that the yarn is made with Outlast - a rayon fiber technology that continuously interacts with a body's microclimate to moderate temperature from being too hot or too cold.

Yuzu Soak is back in stock. All my hand knits are blocked and washed in Soak. Yuzu is my favourite scent.
What is it: Soak is modern laundry care. Clean up with Soak’s eco-friendly formulation. Developed to be as easy on the environment as it is on your clothes, it’s the no-rinse clean you trust and love.

Soak is perfect for your laciest lingerie, softest sweaters, baby clothes, quilts, swimwear, workout wear and all the laundry you love. love it. wear it. soak it.

How it works: Just Soak and squeeze. No need to rinse. Lay knits flat to dry. Wash sets (like lingerie) together. Test fabric for color-fastness.

made with plant derived and renewable ingredients
biodegradable, phosphate-free, dye-free, sulphate-free
safe for hand or machine washing (including HE)
Yuzu: Clean with a peel. Pucker up and give your laundry some love with a kiss of tart citrus + crushed eucalyptus.
I'm working away on my shawl.
My only complaint is that I can't put it down. Just one more row to see how the colours are going to change. Who am I kidding? It's never just one more row. More like just five more rows. I should be back to another garter stitch section tonight.
