one knot in one skein - but unlike what happens with noro, the color gradation was uninterrupted. this yarn is just so great to knit with, and it stands up so well to hard-core sock wear.

Finished! It took forever to make these only because I was incredibly busy, leaving my double-full-time job and preparing for my daughter’s wedding. These are, in fact, for that same daughter -- a hard-core Smithie, weightlifting worm-farming bad ass artist. :) Who, of course, needed pink socks.

I named these Minkeys because they’re pink monkeys. Every time I say Minkey I say it like Inspector Clouseau would say it -- Minkey -- and I laugh.
