Lisa, Nadia and I had a lovely Sunday venturing to the east end of the city. We shopped the Painted Fleece studio sale and then went for a large, somewhat greasy yet delicious, brunch.
Look at the beautiful sock yarns I acquired. From left to right we have One More, Doris's Sofa and Sangria or as I call them, apricot, blue/gray and purple/mauve. I actually need sock stash enhancement in a big way. Several pairs of socks from my early knitting days have simultaneously fallen apart in the last month. I guess nothing truly does last forever, even beloved socks. I need to get knitting, knitting!
The Daughter has already claimed the mauve and wants it to become Kaiso. The blue/gray told me from the shelf at the sale that it is my future Waving Lace.
I did manage to finish a pair last week. Alas, they are The Daughter's not mine. By her request, it's another pair of Broadripple from Knitty (what a sensible, attractive pattern!) in a shade of pink I can only describe as bubblegum.

pretty purchases ... nice knitting :)
Great stash enhancement. Love the colors. The socks are great too. My almost 4 year old requested a sweater recently. :)
