Sock club catch-up pics

And not before time, I give you the April sock club colourway - "Wildfire" in stunning superwash merino/tencel.....


And without further ado, May's colourway - "Gothique", on a base yarn of superwash Bluefaced Leicester/nylon.....


Two very different dyeing styles on two equally special, but different bases. Wildfire will knit up into a semi-striping sock and has a gentle sheen courtesy of the tencel content. Gothique (rather darker and more subdued than it appears in this pic), is a dark and mysterious brew - it has rich, deep violet and black tones with flashes of intense cerise. I cannot tell a lie - I couldn't resist keeping one of these for a new shawl design - look out for something that wouldn't look out of place in an Evanescence video : )
