Hmm? Oh yeah, hi there. Yes, I'm back from my little vacation.

Marshmallow what? I wouldn't know, I was on vacation.

Labor Day what? I wouldn't know. I was on vacation.

How was my vacation?? I wouldn't know I was - 

Oh wait - it was fine. It's the Monday after vacation, I'm not even really awake or here or something.

Knit One Crochet Too Crock-O-Dye

Crock-O-Dye is a wonderful, silky, sock weight yarn from Knit One Crochet Too.  The beautiful colors are created by adding two dye colors to a kettle and hand dyeing the yarn.  The result is yarn with infinite color variations, depth, and dimension and a bit of a silky sheen.  Each skein is one of a kind.  Perfect for socks, shawls and lighter weight garments.

  • Fiber Content: 65% superwash wool, 20% nylon, 15% silk
  • Put-Up: 100-gr hank
  • Yardage: 416 yards
  • Texture: smooth and plied
  • Gauge: 28-31 sts = 4" on US #1-3 needles
  • Made in Peru

Bizzy is very excited about this new yarn and has just cast on for Tempest from Knitty.  With the depth of color in this kettle dyed yarn, it is going to be one fabulous sweater.  Knitted on size 6 needles with this fingering weight yarn, just 2 skeins each of 2 different colors will suffice for most sizes.

So glad you enjoyed the vacation. It must have been heavenly! I am going to try Mim Felton's Nefertiti wrap in the Candy colorway. I had been saving some bluish-green gorgeousness called Dark Water from Ruth Stewart of www.knittingonimpulse.com, but I found another pattern that is perfect for it, so this is GREAT!! Thanks you for doing this so we can afford lovely yarn a little more often!
