Yes it is Spring in Nova Scotia, but...

...you may want to have on your wool socks today! Yes May 15th and we still need a wood fire occasionally, and that is why Nova Scotia is a great place to have your drawer full of wool socks, just like MrB and I do!  :-)  Do you?

It's cool and damp, and we needed to put on a fire this morning to take off the chill in the house today.  These are three of our latest cranked sock pairs, all featuring Opal yarn, which is one of our favourite yarns to use.  MrB just loves Opal yarn!

 

But I must put in a plug for the Shelridge Yarn today too.  I kitchenered a pair socks from that yarn this morning while sitting by the fire.  They feel so good on the hands while grafting the toes, I can only imagine how they feel on your feet!  Oh, I don't have to imagine, I know, because I have a pair.  Shelridge Yarn is also a favourite yarn of MrB's and is probably a close 2nd or 3rd to the Opal yarn we use mostly in production.
