Well, I have made contact with my pal! I am happy to report that she is open to pretty much anything, and has the exact same size feet as me! She also has exceptional taste in sock yarn, which is exciting for me because I am going to try a brand I have never used before, but have always wanted to.
Just a quick question about sending gifts before the August 2 sock deadline: I'd like to send little care packages, this is OK right, since it's not the actual socks? Just making sure, it's my first swap, so bear with me.
I still haven't heard from the person who got me, but I am sure he/she is busy stalking my blog and learning plenty about me.
Sockapalooza 4 Poll:
Help me decide on the perfect color of Fleece Artist Sock Yarn for my pal:
Option 1: Raspberry Sea Wool
Option 2: Aegean Sea Wool
Option 3: Brick Merino
Option 4: Harvest Merino
The yarn should be a semi-solid as I plan a very detailed sock pattern (either Nancy Bush's Travelers Stocking or Ladies Silk Stocking.)

Raspberry Sea Wool is my choice. Beautiful stuff.
Very pretty yarns. I really like the brick merino.
uh oh, that's one vote for each the brick, raspberry and the aegean (on another site)....
this may confuse matters!
I also like the brick merino.
Love the brick! But then again, even the harvest (which is not my fav color) is gorgeous--it's a very close call . . .
I join the crowd voting for the Brick Merino - I love the subtle variegations.
brick!
Looks like the Brick Merino is the winner! I also love it! I'll have to check the pattern and make sure I get the right amount....of course that means I'll need to PICK the pattern. Stay tuned for another poll ladies!
I like the aegean... just to throw my two cents in...
And I can't imagine anything better than a little care package! Go for it.
