Chambray

I took a little trip down to Downtown Yarns this past weekend. I got a few skeins of Cascade Heathers and I bought myself a little treat. Ok maybe it's a big treat and the Cascade was a little treat. I got myself some gorgeous Madeline Tosh yarn called Chambray. Did you ever have a pair of light jeans that were washed so much that they verged on white? That's what this yarn looks like. Here's my photo of the yarns but the Tosh is a bit washed out looking here:



Here's a stock photo of it from a website:



Isn't that a great color? As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted it and I even have an idea what I'll be making with it!
Still working on Patrick's sock but I've been sick the last few days so haven't gotten a lot of it done. Sok he won't be needing them till autumn anyway. I've got time.
