I absolutely love this yarn! It is what I knit my soldier socks out of, and though it is inexpensive, it is the softest sock yarn I've ever worked with. After I washed and dried the socks, it was even softer!
I had a free day for completing the July Stashalong KAL with in a KAL, so what did I buy? More Knitpicks Essential. Here is the loot:
The colors are riverbed multi, burgundy, gulfstream, coral, more riverbed multi, Tuscon multi, and Tuscany multi. After seeing the Tuscon multi, I wish I'd bought more of it. Now I just have to finish up the projects I already have OTN so I can start some more.
Hey Buck! I saw someone at work today with a Red Wings t-shirt on and immediately thought of you! See, you've had a definite impact on my life as well! Still not a hockey convert, though.

We're EVERYWHERE. Quite unlike those poseurs who used to call themselves "America's Team."

Wow, what a haul!! I'm jealous over here! Looks like really great stuff. And you're right about the price -- terrific!! Glad it works up well and gets softer after washing. I'll definitely have to give this yarn a try.
Buck -- While I'm no Cowboys' fan, I can deal with them calling themselves "America's Team" better than when Ted Turner took the phrase over for the Braves. Argh.
Buck, no comment.
Sus, it is well worth the money. And this from me who is a die hard "wool is itchy" fan, er person.
Ted Turner-my opinion of him is something that is best left unsaid.
