I agree! The colors look great - can't wait to see the FO!

Re: sock yarns: I'm still experimenting. I've used Regia, Patons, and Elann's, and only recently have dipped into the 'higher end' yarns: ShiBui knits was great, and the Koigu and Lorna's are gonna be wonderful, I can tell just by winding them up! Knit my first socks w/ Sockotta, which is mostly cotton, and it was okay. But I like the warmth and squishy quality of the wool! Good luck with your sock knitting!
