This month I cast on some fun new socks, I can't remember what yarn I am using for these socks as I lost the ball band, and I decided to just invent a pattern, which remind me of fish bones, so I am calling these socks Rainbow Fish, because that's all I see.
And I also made some decent progress on my Pink Fizz by Andrea Mowry. I am loving knitting with this 100% alpaca, I am feeling a bit embarrassed that this is my first time knitting with this fibre because, I am pretty sure I will be knitting with alpaca way more frequently.
As a very fun side note, this yarn came from a family run farm, in the same region where I live and the colour name of the yarn is called Cocoa. Guess the name of the sweet alpaca who's fleece this is and whose very whimsical photo came with the yarn? Cocoa!! The fibre is naturally this rich dark chocolate color, just like the aplaca it was sheared from and the name of the colour is the name of the alpaca! So cool! I am in love. I wonder if they would allow me to have an alpaca on my residential city lot? Or maybe Cocoa the alpaca wants to come hang with me and provide me with cocoa coloured alpaca fleece for as long as we both shall live.
