Home Sweet Home

Generous Cindy sent not one, but two sets of Unloved Sock Yarn, the Socka twins and the Regia twins, and a note, which arrived today. Thank you, Cindy! As you can see, the formerly unloved sock yarns are settling into their new home.

Unloved sock yarn

The Socka twins play well with others and may become a Fair Isle project. Here they are with their new friends Koigu and little Habu. They're posed on the same towel background as last time, by the way. The colors of the yarn are truer here, but (oddly) the towel background color is truer in the first photo.

The Regia twins kept to themselves initially, but have begun to tag along after DH's cabled vest.

Home, sweet, home. With thanks to Beth for organizing this brilliant swap.

Aw, it's so heart-warming to see newly-adopted yarn feeling secure and loved in a new home. Touching, really.
