Grab your pony and pack your bags, we travel out beyond the borders of the Shire.  Our journey will take us toward the forest of old, Greenwood; however the Necromancer has turned it into Mirkwood, a dark and terrifying place. We have Dwarven cables up the sides, the center back panel from the shawl is on the front and the trails the Dwarfs hike through are on the back.  The trails hitch left and right and upside down! Worked two at a time, toe up on one circular needle these socks are a breeze to knit and pack a punch.

Yarn is still available, pm me to order. wmdress@sbcglobal.net
