I seem to be running in colour families these days!

On the needles, a more interesting (and hopefully better-fitting), top down raglan. Mmmm this yarn is so soft! I got it in Paris, it’s Plassard Meri-Cash8. 90% merino, 10% cashmere, with lots of plies.

Off the needles, plain ribbed socks, top down, but with red toes! Ultra Alpaca Light. I’ve now got a red pair with grey toes on the go.

I’m headed to Ottawa for a weekend away – have a good one!

I had to throw away a purchases pair of gray socks with red heels and toes because I had worn them out. But I intend to replace them with ones like yours

I love the red toes! What an inspired idea.

Love those socks. The colors somehow make me want to curl up in front of a fire with a good book!

Hi. I live in Ottawa. I’ll be leaving on Sunday for a week in New England, but if you need a drive anywhere here on Saturday, or just want a tour of the sights, let me know at emccarten@gmail.com.
