This is a plateful of Jitterbug, Colinette’s latest offering to the sock-makers of the world…

It’s easy-care merino and the colors really are unbelievable.  Caution:  Do not use this yarn if you are easily mesmerized!  It’ll cause intense staring and a sudden inability to blink.  A sock pattern comes on the band, and the medium fits my size 8.5 foot.  Unfortunately, Jitterbug has a very short shelf-life.  Tune in next week for the empty plate “after” photo…

We hung up some yarn the other day. It’s a new thing for KnitWitz, although I hear a lot of yarn shops do it. It does make a difference in being able to see the full colorway of Handmaiden’s SeaSilk. And the Malabrigo on the top row is more touchable this way. Thank you, Tricia, for the arrangement!
