Cloud City

This morning we are once again living inside a cloud that has encased the North Country. It's been a rare day this summer here in Vermont when I have not donned my sweatshirt and wool socks to ward off a chill. Speaking of my wool socks, may I comment right now on the wonderfulness of this yarn I used to knit these babies. It's Sockotta by Plymouth I think and I picked up a skein a while ago because it was a self-striping superwash and enough yardage to knit my favorite sock pattern. It wears like iron! I knit another pair shortly thereafter and both have been worn and gone through the washer and dryer I'll bet 60 times - no holes or thinning at toes or heels. I think I took pictures, let me find them:


I've still been fooling around with the small quilt projects, just not taking photos. I'll do that today and post a few. I'm in serious experimental mode and some of it is not so pretty. --cds
