Lookee what I got in the mail today!!
Socks that Rock Lightweight Minis
approx. 708 yds total
L to R: Smokin' Cause I Am, Bumblebery, Koi Koi, Tanzanite, Oregon Red Clover Honey, Watermelon Tourmaline, Spawn of Brawn, Garnet Dreams, ST-1, Pond Scum, Queen Charlotte, Mad Hatter
Aren't they cute! Doviejay hosted a mini swap and I was lucky to get in as an alternate. You see I had to wait for my skeins (Oregon Red Clover Honey & Pond Scum) to arrive from storage, and the swap had closed.
Anyhow, she did an awesome job chopping and labeling the minis. You can see the little pictures for the colorways too.
Mine will go into my Beekeeper's Quilt stash bag for now. Of course, I may change my mind, that happens a lot around here ;)
FO's will be coming soon!

oh, squee! do you need a special connection to get the STR minis, or is there a place where regular joes can order one? i'm not on the hexapuff wagon but i am making a sock yarn afghan (barn-raising quilt from knitalong)!
oh, or i could READ. got so excited about the tiny skeins i couldn't help myself.
colour me jealous! <3
Love the minis. Have you made any hexes yet?
Ooo! Those are really cute! I've been following Disco's hex blanket on you know where, can't wait to see if you do one too!
Ok that is some seriously yummy yarn!!!! And let me know how the beekeepers quilt works for you. I did one hexipuff and realized it wasnt for me. So now I can live vicariously thru yours!!!!
Ooh lovely!
You got a great assortment! Is your blankie going to be all STR? My friend Christine, you may know her as Mapleweave, is making 2 blankies and has been mixing it up with all her leftover sock yarns.
this is a sight for sore eyes, Zonda! I really droole over it!
