If you have been a reader here for some time, you may recall that my friend Jess and I do a very tiny self-striping sock club. We take turns selecting and buying self-striping yarn to make matching socks. It all started with our Green Bay socks, followed by the Mondim socks, and most recently it was the Gothic Rainbow socks.
Jess and I recently met up to knit with Ivy over six feet apart in lawn chairs in Ivy’s yard. She gave me our newest yarn, which I can’t wait to knit up.
The yarn is Mint Rain Hand Dyed Yarns (a new to me dyer) in the colorway Christmas in Whoville. I love the teal and pink mixed in with the reds and greens. I can wait to get started on these in July for the Christmas in July sock KAL (info on the KAL coming next month).
Monday is June 1, which is the start of Pride month. I would love it if you would join me in knitting rainbow socks to show the LGBTQ community we stand with them. I’ll be sending a progress keeper or stitch marker to anyone who joins the KAL.
I hope you have a great weekend. I hope it brings you beautiful yarn and time to knit.

I’ve decided to finish a rainbow 🌈 blanket instead of dyeing and starting a new project.

Pride month is so important. We were talking about spray painting our lawn with a rainbow so the pilots of the little planes that play over head could see. I may join. But It would be baby socks!

Baby socks count! So do slippers! I think spray painting your yard would be really cool.
