When bad pooling happens to good knitters...

I love this yarn. It's Cosmic Fibers basic sock yarn in the Garnet colorway. Clearly, my gauge, this pattern and this yarn do not mix without some major pooling. I tried to just go with the flow, but I couldn't. It's been frogged.

I'll start the socks again with this instead:

Colinette Jitterbug in color 035.

This post isn't all that depressing though. Look at this!

Just over 4oz of BLF dyed in a colorway called Koi. Found this through a new dyer on Hyena Cart called The Good Sheep. Love her colors and handspun. She sells on Hyena Cart and also in her etsy shop with the name "Good Sheep".

That is some MAJOR pooling!

Pretty colors though.

love the yarns!! The roving colors are very pretty---I'm interested to see how it will spin up.
