Noro yarns ...Good news that yur husband is better! Noro yarns are wonderful for scarves and sweaters; but, I was not happy with the color distribution in socks ... tho I love the colors of Noro ... Perhaps the best thing for you to do is knit a pair or even one with the Noro ... Knitting is a very very "personal preference" art.<BR/><BR/>Now I really don't want to start a whole new dimension to your blog, but any chance for the recipe for apple/celery soup!! <BR/>peace, ElizabethAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-25676523948998465392008-03-29T12:00:00.000+00:002008-03-29T12:00:00.000+00:00If you like a slightly thicker sock than Regis and...If you like a slightly thicker sock than Regis and the like, why not try the Mirasol Hacho 100%merino from Peru? I've made 4 pairs to date and love how they knit up. Granted the yardage (137 yds)per skein is scanty, requiring 3 skeins for a decent pair, the price is certainly affordable - $7.95 Cdn per skein. Reinforce the heel and Bob's your uncle - a fine pair of socks. Glorious colourway choices. And supports a worthy cause for funding a school in Peru. Can't go wrong.
