Are you a sock knitter? Did you know that we have two bases that are perfect for socks?

On the left is our Tough and Tender base... it is a delightful blend of 90% SW Targhee and 10% Nylon.... it's equal parts soft, bouncy and durable. If you've been following me for a while, you'll likely have heard me talking about trying to save this base, as I've struggled for the last year and a half to get it from my regular supplier. I'm still working hard to reach my goal of raising $60,000 to buy a huge lot of it from different supplier and if you want more details about that.... you can check out my YouTube videos or previous posts.

On the right is our Heartfelt Sock base and this one is super special for me. When I couldn't find a commercially spun non superwash, non nylon sock yarn, I designed my own. I started by test spinning some blends and landed on a 75% BFL and 25% Kid Mohair blend that is equal parts strong, soft and hard wearing. I then sent a sample of my handspun to the mill and they took the necessary measurements off the yarn and now custom spin this base for me to match my handspun specs. We've carried it for about 4 years now and it is rapidly becoming a favourite for those who have knit with it before.

So if you're a sock knitter, have you tried our yarns before? Let me know!

Just before I started my campaign to save our Tough and Tender base, it was time for a restock of Heartfelt... It took a couple of months to be spun but this is what 100 KG (220 pounds) of yarn looks like... not sure what I'm going to do when we reach our goal for Tough and Tender and 550KG (1200 Pounds) shows up!!!

Some quiet knitting today before I head out for the second part of my trip. I have had a lovely time visiting with my aunt and working on finishing a long overdue project. It's almost there and I'm hoping to find a little more time this weekend to work on it.
