Sockret Pal Package Arrived!






My final package from my Sockret Pal arrived just a few days ago. Just look at the lovely socks included! The are beautiful and sooo soft! What a lovely color combination; purple/pink/sage,gray and white. I just love them. See the cables? Even on the ankles. There's extra yarn from the socks for me to knit something. The extra skeins of yarn are BRAWNY and ABLAZE - see the photo. Brawny is deep, rich autumn colors. Ablaze is perfectly named - it looks like fire! My pal also sent me a pattern for Karen's Sugar-free Diabetes Walk Socks to knit with worsted weight yarn. It looks like a fun pattern. One of the cool things about the pattern is that when she purchased it, a donation was made to diabetes research. Isn't that great?

What a terrific Sockret Pal! Not only did I get wonderful socks, but a donation was made to a worthy cause.

My Sockret Pal is Tiffany! Thanks Tiffany, for being a wonderful Sockret Pal and philanthropist.

You are very welcome!!! I am so glad you liked it. I am not sure if the extra yarn from the socks is enough for another pair or not. Maybe for ankle socks for someone with small feet. I didn't want to run out mid sock and have to join the yarn so I knit each sock from a new skien. :) I knew you would love the extra yarn I sent!! And Chrissy of Gardiner Yarn Works (where I got the pattern) is fabulous!! She lives close to me and I've met her a couple times. I love to support her business and her friend Karen. So yeah I"m glad you love it.
