Happy new year! I wanted to start off this post by thanking everyone for their continued support, not only for the blog but also Candy Skein. It was a crazy year for my family. I promise to be more consistent with these posts in the new year.
Now to WIPW!
This is my January '14 colorway, Confetti Cupcake. It looks a little lighter here than it actually is. I'm using the Hermione's Everyday Socks pattern that is my go to "vanilla" sock design. It's fast (I just started these Sunday night and am on the heel flap) and looks great with crazy yarn.
This is how I'm dyeing the yarn. It's the first time I've tried this technique and it's totally fun, though takes a bit of time because it's so active.

ReplyDeleteOh what gorgeous colorway and the yarn looks sooo yummy.
Thank you for keeping the w.i.p.w's and the f.o.f's alive. I haven't participated as much as I wanted last year, but looking forward to change that this year :)
Perfect name for your new color way. Your sock looks just like a slice of that Pillsbury confetti cake mix!
ReplyDeleteYou produce the most beautiful yarns.
Very cute! Looking forward to seeing the finished socks!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cheerful colorway, congrats!
