This is Eloise, done in the Impudent colorway. The pattern is by Kirsten Kapur and the yarn is by Chewy Spaghetti. It’s part of the Blue Plate Special, which has one more round (June, July, August) and then it will be over. I’ll miss it, that’s for sure. I love getting a surprise yarn in the mail, and I’ve loved everything about this sock club. I’m going to be on the lookout for something like it, and if anyone belongs to a sock club that they really love, let me know. The picture is pretty much crap, since it’s raining today, but the yarn has that great little bit of sheen that bamboo yarns do. The colors are grey, dark pink, light pink, and yellow. Those four colors sound so weird together, but they look really nice. There’s a reason that I don’t dye yarn, and my lack of color sense is just one.
I love those colours! I really want more bamboo sock yarn, it just feels so nice on the feet.
As for sock clubs, I only just joined socks clubs this year, but I’m really enjoying ones by Lotus Yarns and Blue Hand Fibers (both on etsy.com)

Looking good so far. I love bamboo sock yarns too. I keep meaning to try the Regia bamboo blend.
