I finished my June Knit Spin Farm Little Known Holidays Club socks. For the club I get the Targhee Sport base (90% Superwash Targhee, 10% Nylon) with a coordinating mini skein. The colorway is Rain Day.
Rain Day as explained by Knit Spin Farm: Rain Day is celebrated in a small town in Pennsylvania every year with umbrella decorating contests, lawn and window displays, and an award for civic leadership. It began in 1874 when a resident noted it always seemed to rain on his July 29th birthday. Records for the past 147 years show it has rained 115 times on Rain Day!
I’m very happy with this sock club. My goal is to finish each month’s socks before the next skein arrives. So far I’ve met that goal.
Love the rain day story and the socks.
