just returned from Knitting Sisters (Williamsburg, VA) with sock yarn for my nephew's next pair of socks. He chose silk blend.

it's self-striping in blue/white, and feels very nice. That will make knitting them less of a chore.

said nephew might have big feet.

nope--he's turning 8 in March...I just don't like to knit socks (serious second-sock syndrome). But I'll do it for him.
