The yarn is Fiber Stash Dyeworks Twinkle Toes. I can't remember the name of the colorway but they're very colorful and sparkly under artificial light. This is the last skein of Fiber Stash yarn in my stash (I used blue for the Lissajous Figures socks and brown for the Flaco socks) and I'm ready to get more. I think I'll have to wait for VT Sheep and Wool in the fall- I'm still trying to stash down. (But Fiber Stash will be vending at NH Sheep and Wool May 11-12!)
I started working on these socks right after Santana's stroke. I wanted something simple to work on while I followed her around the house and watched her movement. But she's practically back to normal now. She's eating, taking her medicine and moving around/jumping easily.

Made a nice potato/leek soup last night. And started some no-knead dough. Tonight will either be sloppy joes (if I can motivate to turn some of the no-knead dough into buns) or roasted chicken.
I'm trying to find yarn in the stash for my first brioche knitting project. I have several Caron Pantone bundles that I got on sale at Michaels for multi-colored cowls but I want to try a simple two-color brioche cowl first.
I also have three colors of Cascade 220 Superwash to make a buffalo plaid hat. (Black, burgundy, red.)
Quilting is still moving along. I'm down to two stacks of pre-cut pieces. And I've been secretly working on another quilt.
Still spinning away on 1.25 pounds of a blue and chartreuse mix of wool.
This weekend I think I'll make a Maple Swirl Bread.
