As I've been slogging through the comics, it's become increasingly important to balance the work with play, and play I have. So much so, that I've managed to finish off another woven scarf.
Warp: Doespins sock in Paua. Weft: Verdant Gryphon Mithril in Green Water Snake.
Opal's Der Kleine Prinz in Die Rose Der Kleine Prinzen color way
As a reward, I've cast on a new vanilla sock. This time I'm using the sock blank I bought a few posts back. I've never used a sock blank before, but I'm already addicted. Look how pretty the colors are!
Gale's Art Single Sock Blank in The Big O color way
At the rate I'm going, I'll have another pair of socks off the needles in no time.
Has anyone else been playing with new-to-you yarn? Is there any I should try?

I love making lists with an abundance of check boxes, it makes me feel so productive :) Really love the colour the sock blank is knitting up to! I've never used a sock blank before, maybe it's time..
I've always wondered what sock blanks would look like knit up, it almost reminds me of handspun socks! I have not been using any new-to-me yarns lately, all tried-and-true favorites (Verdant Gryphon, Blue Moon Fiber Arts).
