What a Deal!
Rainbow Sherbet socks July 2017 |
The colors in the skein are a bit funky, but they remind me of rainbow sherbet. The official name for the color way is "Sprinkles."
This yarn is a bit stiff to knit because it contains more nylon than normal - 25%, so I anticipate that the additional nylon will allow these socks to withstand a lot of wear and laundering.
a matching pair |
Needles: US size 2
just a few "sprinkles" in the yellow section |
75% superwash wool, 25% nylon
Have you found any great deals recently?
Nice find!!!! I love a good thrift store find like this-beautiful pair of socks already!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find! I wish the thrift stores near me had that kind of stuff...once in awhile fabric, but I've never found yarn. The socks are really pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove your socks and how they match and sherbet should have been its name:)

Wow, I don't know that anyone will come across a better deal than that one! I like the socks - the colors are different, but happy together.
ReplyDeleteThat's a bargain for sure! And they knitted up quite pretty.
ReplyDeleteGreat find! The worked into very nice socks. Hugs,
ReplyDeleteCute socks!
DeleteI am trying to avoid all yarn purchases. I could open a yarn store at my house.
That was a great deal! I think the colors look a bit like fall. I never manage to find yarn at my thrift store. I don't know if there are just a lot of knitters here or people around here don't get rid of yarn. Love your socks.

That was a GREAT deal.
ReplyDeleteThat was a super deal! I like them as sherbet socks even more than sprinkles, though that works for me too, in an Easter decoration kind of way hehe.
ReplyDeleteThat was a great deal! I have been staying away from the sales this summer, I need to have a sale of my own:)
