I love a good self-patterning sock yarn and we have some really fun stuff coming in a few days. West Yorkshire Spinners is releasing their 2019 Holiday Color, Christmas Robin.
Isn't this nice? I love the earthy tones in this pattern. It coordinates with solid colors 352- Tumeric, 632- Cinnamon Stick, and 510- Cayenne Pepper should you want coordinating toes and heels. And I'm told that UK crafter and sock designer Christine Perry of Winwick Mum is the designer of the free pattern that will come with each ball of Christmas Robin.
Plus, she has designed a four-color collection that will soon be released too.
If you wanted to grab some of the previous WYS holiday colors, I'll have Holly Berry and Fairy Lights again too. so glad to see these coming back for the season. The links here will show as being out-of-stock until they yarn arrives in a few days.
I need 2 skeins of the top picture. with the brown, cream, gold and red.

Love the new 2019 Holiday Color, Christmas Robin. Just as much a fan of the past 2 years colorways. They knit up great.

Is this yarn machine dry or air dry?

Hi Sandy, thanks for asking! It's machine wash and could tolerate machine dry but for longevity I recommend just leaving out to air dry. Even my workhorse yarns like Opal, Regia, Berroco, Trekking and West Yorkshire I still air dry.
