I did a google search to see if I was the only one out there as I thought that was a very strange thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292173.post-1142892513530097652006-03-20T14:08:00.000-08:002006-03-20T14:08:00.000-08:00Cool Socks That Really Do Rock!

I love the colors and the way they matched up, even though you said it wasn't on purpose, they look great with their matching pools!<BR/><BR/>It sucks that you had knots in the yarn. I HATE it when that happens! But I'm glad to see that the company is gonna make it up to you.Tina in Wonderlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05909627925080829345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292173.post-1142623446192687232006-03-17T11:24:00.000-08:002006-03-17T11:24:00.000-08:00Gorgeous, all of it.

Kaci pretty much put me through the wringer for NOT contacting them as soon as I knew there was a problem with the yarn. They made mine good too.

I agree with you on the garter flap edge. Maybe on a plainer pattern where it could be a "design detail." I'm looking forward to seeing your Eye of the Tiger socks.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05483752128029075112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292173.post-1142460590207469882006-03-15T14:09:00.000-08:002006-03-15T14:09:00.000-08:00Contact Blue Moon Fibers about your knot problem a...Contact Blue Moon Fibers about your knot problem asap. I can tell you from experience that this is not acceptable to them. They had some problems with their mill earlier in the year and have seemed to have worked it out. Let them know. Their customer service is prompt, courteous, and all about pleasing the customer. I am not affliated, just satisfied.Jenny Rayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10810959139972608987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292173.post-1142459315730804102006-03-15T13:48:00.000-08:002006-03-15T13:48:00.000-08:00I love the way your STR socks striped!

I'm knitting my 3-year-old a sweater right now with Sirdar Denim Chunky. I haven't come across knots yet, but the yarn isn't spun very well. All four skeins are the same. I don't know if that's usual for that yarn, or if it's because it's acrylic/wool/cotton blend. I don't really like the look of the stocking stitch. It splits pretty badly, too. I think I may have to cast on a pair of socks to give myself a break from it tonight!lexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00349151799470816752noreply@blogger.com
