Seeing Double, At Last!

After doing little else aside from knitting Thermal over the weekend I am thrilled to announce I've got two sleeves now! The next step is to knit the button band and pick up a bajillion (maybe a slight overestimate) stitches to knit the collar, then I'll just have to sew on the sleeves and weave in the ends.

Friday I received my first Pure Knits Yarntini Sock Club Kit and from the moment I opened it I knew the best word to describe it is "Yowza!" Included in the kit is Yarntini Sock Yarn in Pure Breeze Stripe, a coordinating Misocrafty bag, Lucy Neatby's Cool Socks, Warm Feet, some cute stitchmarkers, a sample of soak wash, and a little lip gloss! I absolutely love the color of the yarn and the bag is so cute. I'm so happy with this sock club and I am excited that there will be two more kits in my future. Yea!

Good job on the thermal sleeves! Once you get those stitches picked up it will be done in no time!
Oh that Yarntini kit is to die for! I love the colors!

Awesome kit! I made it in to Scout's Swag and I love the first kit. Seeing all of your fun sock kits makes me covet them, just a little. :)

Wow, that is the most awesome sock club kit I have ever seen! I love the pattern on the misocrafty bag. Congrats on thermal, you deserve a medal for knitting that.
