I kind of found some more yarn recently. I was idly looking for self-striping sock monkey yarn, and Google very nicely took me to the website for Artistic Yarns by Abi, and I found lots and lots of really fun self-striping yarns. She does have a super cute sock monkey yarn, and I was all set to purchase some, but then I kept scrolling and found THIS: self-striping Wonder Woman yarn!!
I was trying to be good so I didn’t let myself order two skeins, and of course I had to get Wonder Woman, so that sock monkey yarn will wait for another day. (Or not, since I found yarn to make my own sock monkey socks.) In any case, the yarn arrived yesterday and I was so happy with it. It came in a cute shipping bag, the yarn was packed in a skein-sized ziploc bag, and I even got the cutest bumblebee stitch marker as a gift!
I pulled out my swift and got it wound so I could cast on immediately. I could already tell that the colors were perfect; I especially love the bit of stellina to give it sparkle.
Sorry, just realized that photo isn’t very good. I’d take another…but I’ve already cast on! These are going to be simple vanilla socks for me so that the yarn can be the star of the show. Can’t wait to have more time for these!
These might replace all four other socks I’ve got going right now as my favorite! Yes, four. I’m officially crazy, I think. Or a sock addict. Or both.
I need to get some Wonder Woman yarn. I could use happy feet.
Who doesn’t need happy feet?? 😉
I love Artistic Yarn by Abi! Such cute stuff. The sparkle in the Wonder Woman yarn is great, and I think you chose the perfect stitch marker to use for this knit! ❤
Thank you! Yes, I’ll definitely be ordering more from her in the future!
I knit her watermelon socks, and they were so much fun! They’re great to wear on winter days when I need a touch of summer in my life, too.
Pretty cool!
Love this yarn!! ❤
