Look what came while I was in North Carolina
My copy of 101 Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders!
Like all of the books in the series, this edition is chock full of wonderful patterns and designs, all using a single skein of yarn- in this case, sock yarn. Of course, I jumped at the chance to contribute these:
I used Twisted Fiber Arts yarn, in Playful (the wonderful heavy fingering weight superwash), dyed in the Scorched colorway. I don't think Scorched is on the roster at the moment, but any of the wonderful Twisted self-striping colorways would knit up to the same effect.
I have recently been reminded that winter is on the way- so I'm glad these gloves are back with me, because they're mine! All mine!

I think I need that book. I inspected the sock stash and it's getting a bit out of control for my comfort level.
I'm with Mariah ;^) I love those gloves so much!
Congratulations! it is lovely. I'm looking forward to owning it. Love the gloves. They will be the first thing I make from it.
Kathleen, those are just lovely and inspire me to try some gloves, because I certainly have a surplus of sock yarn that will never be socks!
