No knitting to report on—This winter
is going to be a record breaker—for hardly being a winter at all.
Yesterday it was breezy, but so warm
(60°/16°)it was more like late April than the beginning of
February! I was out and about, doing nothing special—and not
knitting. No knitting when I got home either. My socks, untouched,
my sweater vest collection dust.
That will change today—I've decided
on a plan for the sleeves—and I'll get it finished today.
Meanwhile—in reference to the
title—Look at this!
Isn't it just as lovely? I have no
idea of what I will wear with the socks I eventually make from this
yarn, but OH, they will be lovely! My weird colors—work! A base
of light apricot, the spot of deep reddish purple, rosy crimson,
sunny yellow orange—I love how nature mashes together the most
wonderful colors!
I am a firm believer in there is
nothing new—we just re-create that which already exists—over and
over again. For sure, this is not a creative color way, it is an
imitative one—But that doesn't make it any less beautiful. I'll
ball it up an then divide it, and re-ball it, latter today. I don't
have any empty sock kit bag for it go in—January's socks are still
not done—but I think this yarn will be for summer socks (not socks
to wear in the summer, but socks to knit in the summer)--I'll enjoy
sweet juicy nectarines, as I knit my nectarines color way socks.
