I call these two pairs CRACKED WHEAT, must be from my Saskatchewan Farmer's Daughter upbringing on the prairies. The colourway of this yarn is like cracked wheat. Notice too the wheat elevator picture, can't have wheat without the traditional old elevator. The wheat I have had for years in a vase that sits in my kitchen. A reminder of the west, since I have lived in the east now for 22 years. These two pairs of Men's socks are close fitting to the foot almost like a dress-sock. They will make their debut at tomorrow's market :-)
