Apparently the postal service is currently operating a new system where mail travels across the seas in a rocket. The July shipment of the Waterloo Wools Sock Yarn Club arrived on my doormat yesterday morning, just four days after it was posted in Canada.
And to tenuously bring this together, this month’s gorgeous, purple-infused colourway is called “Purple Peony” and is inspired by fireworks. As each colourway is inspired by a photo, I thought I’d also post the picture that inspired this month’s yarn:
The base yarn this month is 100% merino, so this is another yarn for the non-sock pile. The colours are so rich and warm that I’m already toying with the idea of an autumn shawl. And I know it’s still summer.
