Repetitive

A bit of a repetitive post, it's mostly socks with repeat colors.  Got a really good deal on sock yarn, and there's a new store in town that sells all hand made stuff, and she is carrying my socks.  Sold a couple of pairs, but I only had five pairs to start with and just dropped off more today.  Got to build up the variety, lol, and I will also be taking in some of the heavy wool work socks and some felted slippers. 

All vanilla socks to start, Deborah Norville Serenity Sock Yarn, links to Ravelry details on the color name, pink sugar...


...teal tease...




...aquamarine...


Then I had a request from someone who had gotten felted slippers from me years ago to make three more ladies size large pairs.  Made with Patons Classic Wool in mainly black, yellow, navy, and chestnut brown, with odds and ends of other colors used as well (they cut back on yardage years ago, sob's).  I used to be able to knit a pair of mediums with two skeins, but now you need a contrast color or extra ball to make the cuff or you run out.  The pattern is the old faithful, Felted Clogs, details here.


Back to vanilla socks the same as those above, two more pairs of each color, spring fling...

Something a bit different, Thujas made out of Ice Yarns Super Socks, details here.


Same yarn, but Vanilla Latte pattern, details here.


And lastly a new color for me, Patons Kroy in sunburst stripes, plain vanilla socks once again, details here.


Happy knitting!
