Annisa

These awesome socks were on display in the Lorna's Laces booth.
Pattern: Amanda's Favorite Funky Socks (purchased on Ravelry)
Yarn: one String Quintet kit
This is a pattern for a pair of mix and match socks. They are a very quick knit and fun to wear. They make the perfect gift for either yourself of a favorite friend or relative. You can make them the way that they’re shown and/or reverse the “bars” and “checks”, so that one sock has the “bars” on the top and “checks” on the foot. The instructions, with the charts and line by line shows you how to make the socks to your own liking.

I didn't have any time for knitting while I was away which could have been a good thing. My colours have changed for my KAL shawl - the Annisa Wrap. I'm using Mrs. Crosby Train Case. This is take two and I should be to the first set of stripes tomorrow.

Woolstok from Blue Sky Fibers should be arriving at the beginning of July. I can't wait to try this yarn. It is going to be amazing for cables.
Rich in character with excellent stitch definition and easy to work with, this yarn is available in lots of colors. You’ll quickly cozy up to it, no doubt!
The Trimont Snood can be worn three ways; as a cowl, a capelet or a hood. Knit in the round from the bottom up in lustrous Woolstok, with decreases providing a touch of shaping, so it’s wider aat the shoulders and narrower at the top. The seed stitch panel adds visual interest.
You might have noticed that Blue Sky Alpacas is now Blue Sky Fibers.
Take a look at their new website...
