Yarn: Arial. Arial is a fine fingering weight yarn with two light, airy plies. It knits into a thin, soft and cohesive fabric that feels good on feet in both summer and winter. The yardage of this yarn makes knitting socks for large feet, intricate pattern stitching or knee-highs feasible with one 100 gram skein. Knit tight for socks, getting the correct gauge is key! Also a good bet for lacey scarves and shawls (it’s a decent substitution for lace weight).
And I have it on good authority that this yarn makes a wonderful crochet fabric and is an ideal choice for crochet socks (one skein is an ample amount even for large socks)!
Kismet. I have had the Kismet soundtrack on cassette tape in my car since the day I got my drivers license. I can belt out every word from every tune on it. This colorway is a long-overdue tribute to my favorite 50s musical! Peacocks, monkies, and purple ardornings. Baubles, bangles and beads. And my favorite: Rahadlakum. http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1916704000/tt0048260
Skein Design: Soulmates. This pattern alternates between two colors. Where they meet they become their most intense and blend into a color more interesting then either alone. They fade the farther away they get from each other.
