My sister (not a knitter, I must add) spotted this gorgeous skein when we were in Harrisville Designs a few weekends ago and knew immediately that it was meant for me. The jewel colors are my favorite, indeed, but with the name POEMS SOCK (colorway "Grape Arbor"), it nearly sprang from the basket & into my eager hands.
Naturally, this muse-worthy yarn is destined for socks. But for me. Yes, me! I have been knitting socks for a couple years now & have only one pair of my own. My sister has four pairs, my husband has three, & my mother two, maybe three. I am determined this will be my next project...after I finish some socks for my father-in-law.
I am still debating on a pattern. I'd like something interesting to knit so I don't get bored, but not so complex as to distract from the yarn. Suggestions, anyone?
Will I wear them to write poems? Read poems? Merely wax poetic? Stay tuned!
