I’m done with the old year. Done, done, done! Did I mention how I’m done with it all?

The lovely rose-colored one on the left? Courtesy of Scout of Scout’s Swag, the latest club shipment. I hope she sells this in her store eventually, because it is really nice. I really, really like it, and I’m pondering the possibilities of a lovely scarf or shawl, possibly out of Sock-Yarn One Skein Wonders.
The other one is from Iv Brambles Sockscene – a gift from Nhien, who is a long-time friend in southern California – the colors couldn’t be more perfect for me. See the lovely colors?
