The Rut Busting Sock Swap Edition! Over at the Knittyboards
tm a bunch of us got together to have a swap where your pal gets you outta your rut. My rut was variegated and striping yarns. So, my pal Delilah2!!!, did just that!! Solid yarn! Yes, one must have solid yarns! There are so many patterns out there that need just that!
My favorite Jelly Belly's, gloves in a bottle (so need that) sock point protectors, and Soak handknitwash.
A close up of the NC dishcloth! She lives in the same state and we are hoping to meet up one day! If I ever get off call that is LOL!
See this, her first stitchmarker! I feel very special to receive that!
Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in Amethyst, my first purple yarn, I mean all purple! Purple is one color I like a lot, I just never seem to buy it...why...no clue
Panda Wool in Teal Lake! The first I've seen IRL of the wool and it is so soft!
Thank you Delilah2 for a great swap package! :)

Lucky lucky - I love that yarn!
Have fun bustin' out of your rut!
Oh, that Gloves in a Bottle is like the best thing ever! Pretty yarn too! Go you rut buster!!!
Great yarn. I love the teal colour.
What on earth is 'Gloves in a bottle'??? Off to google....
What a fabulous package!!! I think I have a similar rut as you do...but then again, I tend to follow most of your yarn purchasing trends too so that may be the problem...hehehe....bad YPF!!
Very pretty!!! And you broke her stitch marker cherry! That's a nice marker too--dangly but not to the point where it's going to get in the way.
isn't the CTH amazing? I knit some Nancy Bush socks out of my amethyst color and I was constantly staring at it - the color was so saturated purple!
What a cool package!! That's sure to brighten up your day!
Great package!
Isn't it fun to get out of a rut? You never buy purple yarn; I always buy purple yarn! ;o)
Great rut buster! I can't wait to hear what you think of the Panda Wool, too.
That's a fantastic package! I love that panda wool. I have some and it's incredibly soft, but I haven't knit anything with it yet.
Great package and what wonderful colors!
Vibrant jewel colors to bust you out of your rut! Enjoy!
OOOOH. I am so jealous. Love those colors!
Can't wait to see what you make with your rut bustin yarn, its all so pretty. :D
Lucky you, a GREAT swap package! sooo spoiled
very nice swap package! I love the purple yarn! Perfect for Porject Spectrum if you follow that.
Do share how these knit up when you get around to it:)
What an exellent idea, helping each other get out of a yarn rut. Great yarn and colors, too.
Ooooh that panda wool is really pretty, I love that soft teal color - zuma
Beautiful! I have the opposite problem with purple: I love it and all my yarn is purple. If it isn't red. Somehow, I always walk out with a purple skein, even when I went in looking for something else.
oooh, lucky you!!! that sock yarn is gorgoues. :-D
Wow! YOu got a great package! That CTH color is sooooo pretty!
Nice package! I love me some Cherry Tree Hill. Never seen the Panda Wool in person. Is it as squooshy as it looks?
What a great swap package! I love that purple cherry tree hill yarn!
nice yarn there miss! you who knits with a load of varigated yarn, i have a question regarding such on my blog this week, and i am wondering if there is a way to control the chaos that is pooling???
I love the Panda yarn and the teal colour!! :)
