So, I guess I stressed myself out too much and didn’t consider the germ implications of handling money and yarn and then eating.  As a consequence, I’m home sick today.

I didn’t get any pictures of the event (you weren’t supposed to take any), but someone did.

And now for the promised swatches…

Let’s start with superwash merino…
We have swatches in the Flame colorway in a bulky handspun

And a sample baby sock out of sock weight handspun

We have a swatch out of bulky handspun in the Fire & Ice colorway

And a swatch out of bulky handspun in the Midnight Sky colorway

Along with a swatch out of sock weight handspun in the Midnight Sky colorway

We also have a handspun sock swatch in the Willow colorway

And a handspun baby sock in the Meadow colorway

Moving on to Merino/Tencel, we have a baby sock sample in the Fire & Ice colorway out of a 2-ply sockweight handspun.

There is also a baby sock sample in the Mars colorway out of a 2-ply sockweight handspun.
All the swatches you’ve seen so far have been out of 2-ply yarn.

Next, however, we have a baby sock sample in the Midnight Sky colorway out of a 3-ply Navajo-plied sockweight handspun.

And a bulky handspun swatch in the Flame colorway out of a 3-ply Navajo-plied bulky handspun.

Lastly we have 2 tussah silk swatches. The first is from a 2-ply bulky yarn in the Maple colorway

The second is from a 3-ply Navajo-plied dk-weight yarn in the Mars colorway

Coming up later this week you might be seeing pictures of all the new handspun yarn up for sale and perhaps if it stops raining I’ll take some pictures of the purchases I made at Stitches…

    Yeah, why weren’t we supposed to take pictures? That was a bummer.

    I hope you feel better soon!

    I think I would like to make some maple socks with a leafy motif. Nice swatches and samples!
