Sea socks + Swatching
Hey, I'm on a roll here… another FO!
I had forgotten how quickly I can finish a pair a socks compared to a lace shawl. Right now it's actually too hot even for cotton socks, but I know they'll come in handy one of these evenings.
The past two days I've started thinking about the next big project. Yesterday I received some color cards I ordered from Sarah's Yarns — JaggerSpun Zephyr, JaggerSpun Super Fine Merino and JaggerSpun Super Lamb — and have already started swatching. They have an offer now where you can get free samples of their yarns, so in addition to the color cards I got three samples that are enough for some good size swatches. Since I haven't picked up a pattern for the next lace project yet, I'm swatching with the Myrtle Leaf pattern from the shawl I just finished.
And more color cards for laceweight yarn are on their way. I have definitely gotten the lace bug.

Beautiful! And greetings from Venice, all the four children were thrilled! (I'm back on Sunday, then I'll stop teasing you ;-)
