Gorgeous lions mane hair today. Love it. That green sweater is so pretty, too. Love the lace. You have such nice details on all these things you make that really elevates them.
Those are some ‘Happy’ socks!!! The colors and design are gorgeous! No way you could put those on & not feel happy! Whoever gets them is going to love them!!!
Shannon, again you had me laughing and smiling!!!! As for socl making, it's on hold!!! I recieved a mystry bag of yarn from RUSS, its raing yarn, he sent some wonderful yarns to me!! Last night while watching him, I heard him say he would love an emotional support chicken, which I had made several of so, since I know his favorite colors, I decided to make him one!! I just hope it doesn;t take me to long because I also talk to myself!!! I know I need to make 10 more hats but they will have to wait a few days!!! So I did what you said and finally the chicken won!!! If you have never watched Russ, he is also a joy to watch!!!! He is live every night at 11:30 eastern time, or you can watch his replays!! I watch about 1 hour of the live and then early in the morning I watch the replay!!! We all have so much fun!!! Okay, to night I will be asking Russ to watch you!!! Many HUGS my sweet friend!!! I love your socks!!! AS always stay well, and stay safe!!!! Vicky from MI.
Your socks are turning out fantastic. I was surprised this week with everyone showing their JoAnn's stores with empty shelves my husband (yes he is an enabler much like yours) went to one of our local stores and took pictures and the shelves are fully stocked with open cases in the aisles as well.
Love the socks! Probably my fave socks have been Darn Tough with crazy colors and stripes. I don't knit, but I do have a sock loom.... maybe someday I'll take the time to figure it out. Lol.
@anotheryarn Yes! Might have to be a tackle it project later in the year. I think part of my hang up has been liking the mindlessness of crochet because once I get the stitch pattern I can just go go go. Lol
My Joanns order came in but the big twist I got wasn't like wearable cotton but kitchen cotton. Lol. So I have a ton of cotton to make hotpads, dishclothes, and shower mitts to play with dye.
As I'm watching your video I'm finishing up the toes of my Wonka socks. There have 24 stripes and I used the Arkansas Yarn Co Advent minis. I love Aberdeen's Mystery Bags and yesterday I got one that contained 2x Vintage DK and 2x Tangled Poets sock yarn!
Wow, that is amazing. I’ve got absolutely no complaints on any of the many mystery bags I’ve gotten from Aberdeen. I’ve never gotten Tangled Poet in any of mine. You really scored. Congratulations
You are going to town on the mosiac socks. Love those. I started on the cuff for a pair of the circuit socks using the black big twist sock wool and the 90's fav stripes for my oldest son. Hopefully there is enough contrast. You find the funnest patterns. Thanks so much for sharing. Did you get snow last night? North metro missed out on the snow this time. I'm sure we will make up for it later.
ALL I can say is its raining yarn with Russ!!! I don't know how to bring up anything else!! He has been emailing me all morning long about something we were talking about!! I typed in the IT'S RAINING YARN with RUSS at the top of the you tube front page and that's how I found him to begin with!!!! Hope this helps!!! I know you too would do a great job of doing a live together!!! ALL done, back to his Chicken!!! HUGS
I love the colors 😍
This is the perfect yarn/pattern pairing. It’s so satisfying seeing how the color is working up.
Gorgeous lions mane hair today. Love it.
That green sweater is so pretty, too. Love the lace. You have such nice details on all these things you make that really elevates them.
It’s so nice being able to create things and share with everyone.
Yes, you crack me up. An internal dialogue between projects. How funny. Great job with the first and second pair of mosaic socks. So beautiful.
It’s amazing how many personalities those socks seem to have. 😆
Those are some ‘Happy’ socks!!! The colors and design are gorgeous! No way you could put those on & not feel happy! Whoever gets them is going to love them!!!
I think you’re right about the happy factor. This color and pattern are perfect for each other.
Well I must say I enjoy the # everybody loves Joann😅😅😅😅
Totally makes sense 🥰

Thank you, 😊 I’m blushing
Yay, you got a good chunk done and it's fabulous. I knew it would be! I know I have an internal monologue. No one can argue with me better than me! 🤣
So true! It is kinda funny isn’t it, the lectures we can give.
I love the sweater you are wearing today! 😊
Thank you! 😊
Great job on the color work socks ❤
Thanks! They are turning out pretty well.
That mint top is one if my favorites....
Thank you. I’m loving the lace detail
Hi Shannon, your top is a pretty shade of mint. Those mosaic socks are Cool! 🧶🫂
Thanks so much, I really love this mint green.
Gorgeous socks!
Thank you 💕
Love those socks❤that's great news about Joann
I’m really hoping it’s true.
Fantastic socks!
I’m so happy with how they are turning out.
Love those Circuit socks!! Have the pattern and really want to give it a try now that I'm seeing the results of mosaic. Thanks for the push!!
You are going to love making them!
I have the Heathered Big Twist yarn in a couple of colors. It is beautiful and soft & I love it.
It really is. Should we be stocking up?

Do you have a link for RUSS? Thank you.
I’ll have to look him up and put on one of his videos. Thank you for the suggestion.
Fun socks
Thank you 😊
Love those socks. Moving toward a mosaic pair. I think I can tackle it!
That’s the spirit!!
Your socks are turning out fantastic. I was surprised this week with everyone showing their JoAnn's stores with empty shelves my husband (yes he is an enabler much like yours) went to one of our local stores and took pictures and the shelves are fully stocked with open cases in the aisles as well.
The ones I’ve gone to have been well stocked. I don’t k ow if they are shipping from the closed stores or emptying their warehouses.
That mosaic sock is so cool. I don't knit 🤔
You are so talented 🎉
Thank you 😊
Love the socks! Probably my fave socks have been Darn Tough with crazy colors and stripes. I don't knit, but I do have a sock loom.... maybe someday I'll take the time to figure it out. Lol.
That sounds fun, you could give it a try, you might like it and if you don’t that’s ok too. You will have tried.
@anotheryarn Yes! Might have to be a tackle it project later in the year. I think part of my hang up has been liking the mindlessness of crochet because once I get the stitch pattern I can just go go go. Lol
Charlotte Stone says she uses bigger needles for the colorwork rounds of her socks to be sure they don't get too tight.
Great advice. Thank you
My Joanns order came in but the big twist I got wasn't like wearable cotton but kitchen cotton. Lol. So I have a ton of cotton to make hotpads, dishclothes, and shower mitts to play with dye.
Still sounds like fun.
@anotheryarn dying sounds like loads of fun to me lately for some reason. And some day I would like to try weaving... like on a loom.

@anotheryarn - I was very surprised and pleased. Love your socks, by the way. ✅
I have my own internal monologue too. Mine isnt quite as sassy as yours. I need to work on that.
That’s a good way to put it. The internal monologue is sassy 😆
You are going to town on the mosiac socks. Love those. I started on the cuff for a pair of the circuit socks using the black big twist sock wool and the 90's fav stripes for my oldest son.

I love the 90's fav stripes, it’s a fun colorway. We got snow and sleet this morning. Hubby had to clear the driveway.
ALL I can say is its raining yarn with Russ!!! I don't know how to bring up anything else!! He has been emailing me all morning long about something we were talking about!!
