Today, I recieved my SSS 2 swap package! It’s from Lara out in California! Man. I want her weather…
BUT, I digress.
She sent me the most amazing package… NOT ONLY did I get the most awesome exclusive SP9 colorway that I was jonesing for, but there was this lumberjack magic stripes color and a candle…but might I say the yarn that is acutally the sock is…

amazingly BLUE…and pooling, and fun..and yes, you see that right. that’s the MONKEY pattern from Knitty…
The one I have coveted the most, but also feared, because it is by the most awesome Cookie.
So, I now have no excuse but to dive in, and cast on a 2nd monkey sock. Man. I’m frightened. BUT, I have no excuses. Tomorrow, by the light of the afternoon, I will be casting on. This will get done. I want a pair…
and THANK YOU Lara! the sock fits divinely! I so want a mate…and thank you for making me stretch myself just everso slightly (ok, not so slightly!) You rock!
