TA DUM!!!!!

NEW SOCK YARN

ARRIVING EVERY SIX WEEKS

 

Opal is a sock yarn out of Germany. They manufacture their sox yarn every six weeks and then automatically ship it to us.

 

The yarn is not made again so if you miss it, you will never see it again.

 

This can be fun, or this can be maddening. We’ll have to wait and see.

 

the pictures below are NOT what we will be receiving, but it gives you an idea about the yarn.
