It's time to celebrate the season with Blue Moon Fiber Arts as we release their new holiday colors on Socks that Rock Lightweight! Tina and crew always come up with the best colors (and names) to help us get in the Christmas frame of mind, and this year is no different. Take a look at:
We've also brought back faves like Cindy Lou Who and Hollyday
There are many, MANY other popular holiday colors on Socks that Rock Lightweight right now too. And we brought back two colors that Tina originally created for one of our Holiday Knit Kits a few years ago because she loved them so much she asked if she could add them to the line up. Of course, I appreciated that these were so awesome that they just HAD to be made again, so here are Fleece Navidad and Angry Elf
These colors and MANY more are available on Socks that Rock Lightweight AND Super Sparkle, just in case you need a little bit of shine in your life. Shown below is Christmas Balls.
Sigh. I want them all.
I wish I were rich; I would order them all!!!

I love the new color-ways & the springiness of their yarn. But I wish they'd come out with a true fingering weight yarn. I have narrow feet & have trouble coming up with a correct number of stitches for my feet. Plus I just like the feel of thinner socks. I may still get a couple of skeins anyway.

Donna, I hear you! I haven't knit socks out of STR LT myself yet for similar reasons- I know my "recipe" and I'd have to adjust it a little bit for the slightly heavier weight. Kind of out of laziness, but also I just like it for hats and other accessories so I just haven't adjusted my own sock pattern yet to accommodate the thicker weight.
Also, I have wide feet and have a hard enough time fitting them into shoes with hand knit socks. I think this may be worth addressing in a blog post!

I remember subscribing to you all years ago and just couldn't imagine every using fingering yarn or making socks. But now I always have socks on the needles and am glad to see this post. I've been looking for some really great christmas-y yarn and you all are the perfect resource!
