These worsted-weight wonders are made from Paton's Classic Wool (white), and the blue was specially-ordered for me by the mistress of one of my favorite yarn shops. I've lost the label and can't remember the brand. It might be one of Plymouth's varieties, but I can't be certain. I worked these hose (yes, the other one exists) on size 5 DPNs (I prefer to use US size 3 and smaller, and finer-weight yarn) and while they did take several hours to make, they went surprisingly quickly, and are comfortable to wear. I plan to debut them at the Allison Woods Highland Games in November.
Friday, are you related to Joe Friday? I've been watching "Dragnet" lately.
