It’s a color called Deja Vu. It has so many different colors in it, it’s really neat!

Oh, I’m not brave enough for my first pair of socks to also be my first experience with circulars and also my first 2-at-a-time experience. No, the book is all about socks, but I am all about straight, easy tubes I’m making wrist-warmers. Saving the socks for another time.

Alright, I’m going nuts: what color Malabrigo are you using? It is GORGEOUS. I’m knitting up a sweater for my tot in Emerald and you are right – absolutely seductive.

I thought it was a pretty good deal. I have my eye on some other sets in different sizes. It’s great for somebody like me who is just getting started and doesn’t have a collection yet.

I’m going to poke around the internet for more info on the technique. Maybe I can see a way to do it that minimizes the clumsy factor for me.

Oh, I know! I should be up to my elbows in polymer clay right now, making a pile of family portrait ornaments. But the lure of something new… hard to resist!
