If you buy a knitter yarn, chances are, she will knit you something.

Case in point- when this girl was gifted a delightfully lovely skein , she quickly cast-on to show her gratitude.

I must say, these are not easy to part with. The yarn feels fantastic and was wonderful to work with. I'm comforted to know their headed to a good home. I think I may use this pattern again soon, because it was really easy to work without being boring, and it produces a nice looking sock.

Yarn: Misti Alpaca Handpainted Sock in Marino
Pattern: Charybdis by Fiona Lucas
