Find a Happy

Last week I was feeling a bit sad as Mr Soaring Sheep had to work away for an extra day. We've slipped into the routine of him working away Monday-Thursday and then we have Friday's together.

I remembered a shop I'd found on etsy called Mothy and the Squid and impulse bought some sock yarn

And of course you've got to cast on a gradient rainbow straight away.

Obviously it's not a patch on having Mr Soaring Sheep around, but it made me smile :)

Does anyone else have some happy yarn they've bought recently? I'd love to see.

  2. That is gorgeous! I have been knitting with Ms. Babs 'Yowza - Whatta Skein' that makes me happy. I will have pics on the blog later this week. I am anxious to see the progress on your socks over the next week or so!

  3. sounds wonderful, looking forward to seeing it. Yay for happy yarn :)

    I've ended up with 3 pairs of vanilla socks on the needles at the moment! I've almost finished the second sock of a pair for me and then I'm going back to the Rainbowy ones

  4. That's so cool how this sock yarn is presented. We wives are real woman warriors holding down the fort while the men aren't around.
