New Yarns to Us and the Erl ~ #3 Lorna's Laces

The third yarn is Lorna's Laces.  This yarn too feels very soft.
I can't wait to see how MrB likes the feel of these socks on his feet.  The label says it is hand-dyed yarn. This particular colourway is called, Christmas at Downton.
  The stripes are unique and thin.  I really like the striping and the shades of this pair.  The yarn is #1, super fine.  The yarn is Solemate, 55% Superwash Merino Wool, 15% Nylon, and 30% Outlast* viscose.  Although the label instructions say it can be machine washed cold and machine dry until damp, I hand washed them and air dried them by the wood fire. I am pretty sure that MrB will enjoy wearing this pair too.
