SSYC Sock Yarn Club

Here for the 12 Days of Sock Yarn Contest?  Scroll down to the post from earlier this morning to enter!  Here for the news of the latest Sock Yarn Club... here you go!

I've received so many e-mails lately wondering when the next SSYC Sock Yarn Club will be available, and it now is!  It took a bit of extra time to firm this one up b/c I've added a fourth dyer to this line up- I just had a hard time pinning it down to just 3, so the theme of this round allows for 4 dyers.  What's the theme?  The Four Seasons of Sock Yarn!

This sixth SSYC Sock Yarn Club focuses on the four seasons, bringing you a special edition colorway that represents Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall.  In February, March, April and May you'll receive a surprise colorway that represents one of these four seasons- each skein is fingering weight and approximately 400 yards.  Each colorway was designed specifically for this club and I'll reveal only two of the dyers, Alchemy Yarns of Transformation and Tilli Tomas.  If you've had a chance to knit either of these dyer's yarns, you can tell that this club represents the highest quality in sock yarn.  And as a special added bonus, the Tilli Tomas selection includes Milan (the merino/cashmere/silk blend) and Beaded Milan so you can do beaded accents on your socks or gloves.  I'm super excited about that one.  It's the first time I've sold a beaded sock yarn in the store and I selfishly can't wait to knit it!

Please note that this club doesn't include patterns or gadgets.  You only pay for the yarn and shipping, not the extras that you can get anytime.  To enroll in the club, go here and follow the directions.  I"ll keep the subscriptions open for as long as I can (in the past it's been under two weeks) and once the link stops working, that means that it's sold out.  But you can always e-mail me at service@simplysockyarn.com for a possible waitlist.

Hung a wreath on the front door. That's it, nice and easy. The dog and cats don't care if I decorate or not!

My tree - a white one I bought new last year and love - is decorated with all european type glass ornaments like the Radko brand etc. They shine lovely against the white tree but my favorites are the old european glass that were my great grandmother's. They've lost some of their sparkle but you can't tell when the tree is lit and are now nearly 150 years old!

We decorate the entire house. Two trees, many wreaths, boughs on our banisters, above our kitchen cabinets. The outside is completely decorated as well. To bad most of it was covered in a recent snow storm! We love snowmen, so our yarn and house are adorned with many varities. Our kids love Christmas. We also have a large Nativity above the fireplace. This is the focal point of our family room. Merry Christmas!

We put up a Christmas tree this year after a long hiatus of 15 years with no Christmas tree. It was fun decorating it with all new ornaments. I put some mini knitted socks, mini knitted mittens and a few counted cross stitch ornaments on the tree along with glass ornaments. It looks like a nice "country tree."

I have some ornaments that were made by people who are now dearly departed... including my sister-in-law's grandmother. My sis-in-law loves seeing her Nana's ornaments on our tree Christmas Eve...

I like to decorate a live rosemary topiary tree with miniature Hallmark ornaments collected for many years. I add a string of lights and a bow to the top, and it makes a very cute addition to my fireplace hearth.

Many years ago when my kids were small we made stuffed snowmen with OMG, store bought white socks! Oh the shame of that, but I didn't even know how to knit back then! lol! we molded orange carrot noses and button eyes and tied ripped christmas cloth around the necks for scarves. Each year my now teens, still get excited to open the box with their sock snowmen to put up around the house. Merry Christmas!
