I Have The Best Friends

I finally got a chance to catch up with a couple of my very best friends and exchange Xmas gifts with them.  I think I got the better part of that exchange, because I walked away with this:

“What is it?” I can hear you asking, in awed and shushed tones.  That, my friends, is Mountain Colors sock yarn.  And it is glorious.

The colors couldn’t be any better if they were dyed with me in mind, and, frankly, I’m not entirely sure the people at Mountain Colors haven’t been spying on me for months in order to learn my preferences.  The greens are lush and glowing, the blues pop, the purples add a nice richness and deep tone.

I think I’m in love.

The only problem is figuring out what to make out of it.  It seems almost sacrilegious to make socks and walk all over such prettiness.

Okay, so I *shouldn’t* tell you where I got it so you could potentially buy more? Or remind you that it’s produced semi-nearby in Montana, so you could theoretically go visit them and get more from the source? 😀 Glad you like the colors!
