YELLOW Monday

YELLOW

... brought to you by our sponsor, Jen at Unglazed.

Check out her side bar for other participants in the Mini Meme COLOR and their YELLOWs.

Yellow is not my favorite color but I do have a limited amount of yellow yarn. I've learned to step outside the box with colors and knit bright yellow socks.

... and there is always time for tea with lemon (even on a hot day!)

And don't forget, school starts today (at least here it does). Don't forget to go...

... watch for excited children on their way to and from school. And have a happy, sunny, Yellow, Monday!!

SKA Sockdown! Sep

The Sock Knitters Anonymous (SKA) has started the new year Sockdown!

Sockdown! Sep's technique is "Yellow" Yep, you read right... "Yellow." The socks can be any pattern knitted in yellow or any pattern by Wendy Johnson in any color. And there is also a choice for this month of doing the mystery sock designed by Nancy Bush. Of course the mystery sock has to be done in "Yellow."

I'm doing the Mystery Sock. "Yellow" is not my favorite color but hey... I'm game.

I emailed Allison at Simply Sock Yarn Co. to see if she had her company yarn available. She had a couple of skeins of "Yellow" left from Sock Summit. yea!!

So I am using Simply Sock Yarn, Hand Dyed, Solid Sock Yarn in Sunflower.
Beautiful color, soft, nice smoochiness, feels great to knit, and I love the way the stitches look.

So far I have clue #1 done ...
The Vikkel Braid is a little fiddly but I love the way it looks! I can't wait for next week and clue #2.
