Yay for socks!
Remember this tragedy? Well yesterday I got another pair of socks from Jenneke. Or, rather, I got a pair of socks, but it was the second pair she sent.
In any case, they are amazing!
I snapped a few pics this morning before leaving for work as it was about 20 degrees and I wanted to wear my brand new socks. :)
The yarn is Merino-Alpaca from Natural Dye Studio, and they have a twined heel:
They're so so pretty, super soft and comfy too! Thank you!
Also the fleece seems to be a hot topic - it is my Rhinebeck fleece. I bought it while I was there - you can read about it here. I got a colored fleece so I could dye over it to make heathery yarn, so I do plan to try that. I'm not sure how much yarn I'll get out of it, but it's about 5-6 pounds of fiber so probably a lot. I guess that will depend on what weight(s) I spin it at too. I am going to make at least one pair of socks from it, of course.

Wow! Just wow.
How thoughtful of Jenneke to send another pair after such a tragedy. (Dramatic? I think not. Man that sucks!)
They are beautious and look very snuggly!
