STR Socks & Stuff

After finding a few more of these fuzzies















I'm happy to introduce to you STR Rockin Sock Club Cedar Creek Socks!
Not as much pooling on the second sock more striping going on...So I guess they'd be called faternal twins not identical twins

(click on photos to see close up)











Some may remember my incident with my Pony socks needles size 1s. One of the tips broke off all my sts fell off as did the metal piece inside side out while I was knitting my sock.. I was enjoying the needles up to that point. After several months of emailing the company I haven't had a response then after sending an email to a Muench Company divison in NYC. They responded almost immediately at 6:30am! We emailed back and forth for about an hour. They sent me a set of metal needles the same day and forwarded my email to Muench Yarns






Well after Kirsten the CEO of Muench Yarns found out she reassured me that she thought this was an isolated incident and sent me a new set right away!


On the swaps front, some updates and I'm ready!

Loving the socks! Good news on getting the needles! I haven't got my Oneskien SP yet :( I guess there was 10 or so people that they skipped over! Have fun with all your swaps!!

The socks are beautiful! I'm glad that you got your needles replaced. That can be such a pain to deal with, if the company doesn't follow through!

What great texture on the socks. I'll have to scoot back into your blog to find out what pattern you used.
