When I was in the planning stages for my second pair of Aurelia Socks, I pulled out four different yarns - 3 Koigus and 1 Fleece Artist. I ended up going with one of the Koigus, but the other three remained sitting in the living room, staring at me, begging me to play with them. After I finished up Aurelia, I couldn’t take it any longer, and decided that something had to be done with the Fleece Artist. So I wound it up into a center-pull ball, flipped through my stitch dictionaries to find a suitable pattern, and cast on. A day later, I was finished with the first sock. They knit up fast, the yarn is lovely, and the socks are comfy.
