Sock Madness

All of these are great sources of yarn and we urge you to check out what they have to offer and consider getting supplies from them since they have one amazing thing in common. They’ve all contributed to the very deep (and growing) treasure trove of prizes.

Tess Designer Yarn – There’s a reason why this booth is always so busy at the fiber festivals. They’ve got gorgeous yarns with a fabulous hand and amazing, saturated colors. The lace weight yarn used in one of our patterns came from here. It’s superwash wool and the colors are inspiring to say the least.

Loopy Ewe - How many of you have not experienced the huge selection and fantastic service that Sheri offers. What are you waiting for? The selection of yarn she has is overwhelming and it’s such a treat when your package arrives with her own special little touches.

Simply Socks Yarn Company – This is yet another source of amazing yarn – just sock yarn. What could be better for a bunch of rabid sock knitters?

Knit Front & Back – This is a collaborative effort by three very different fibre artists: Miss Dana, Miss Karen and Miss Morgan (aka “the kfb girls”) who want to conquer the world and make it a prettier place to be one skein at a time. Unique designs, saturated colour and luxe fibre are just the beginning. Their yarn and fibre are produced in small batches. Each skein may differ slightly even if produced at the same time. They do strive for consistency however hand dyed yarn and fibre is unique for a reason. Besides, uniformity is boring right?

Yarn Lust has some fabulous colors to offer including the official colorways of the Baylor Ball Bands and the UConn Cast Ons.  She truly has a gift for dyeing and five Sock Madness 2 players will get to experience it first hand since she’s generously offered 5 skeins as SM2 prizes.
