Blue Christmas (OOAK) on Sparkle Sock

Blue Christmas (a one-of-a-kind batch!) was a colorway oopsie that came out too beautiful not to share.  Starting with the seasonal favorite colorway "Tannenbaum," the sage green dye had gone off and came out looking just like my tonal colorway Estuary.  The resulting colorway is delicate yet moody, and reminds me of a blue Christmas, vintage lights, or even the colors of lovely Hanukkah.

Sparkle Sock is a fingering weight base that is comprised of 75% superwash merino wool, 20% nylon, and 5% stellina.  The nylon adds strength to the otherwise soft and supple merino, and the gold, silver, or bronze-toned stellina make it glitter just enough without being itchy or spiky.  I knit my daughter sweet socks out of this base when she was a toddler, and there were no complaints about the texture!  It's great for a wide variety of applications.

Sparkle Sock has 438 yards per 100 gram skein.  It is recommended to hand wash and lay flat to dry.  This batch has bronze stellina.
