Yarnia heels ~

I wouldn't recommend this Yarnia "yarn" for socks, as it is not plyed so it is very splitty while knitting. It is actually approximately 10 strands of assorted fibers wound into a skein... (If you've not checked out Yarnia in Portland Ore, I'd recommend a visit, as it is rather amazing) However...the sparkle and glimmer of the strands within the group of threads is such fun that I'm still enjoying this knitting project.I've turned the heels and now ready to begin a cuff pattern.I think I'll use my "favorite at the moment" cuff pattern from More Sensational Socks since it only has 4 rows and a fun mock cable look to it. I can't wait to be done with these socks! I hope the fiber wears well, too!
