Faery Fiber


I found an etsy shop that I really like! It's Faery Fiber. I have no idea where I heard of them, probably from Ravelry but I'm not sure. Anyway I was looking at her sock yarn and I found one called "Mad Eye." It's her line based on the Harry Potter books. (I admit I'm a sucker for yarn named after anyone in a book I like) I don't remember what she said about Mad Eye exactly that caught my eye, but I know the brilliant blue was for his eyes, the brown is the colors that he normally wears, and there's a hint of pink to match his cheeks. Anyway, the colorway is beautiful. It's 475 yds, so there is definitely enough to do whatever I want with this. I was also tempted by her Cafe Mocha colorway, but decided that one skein was enough to try out.

As a bonus for buying from her, Faery Fiber sends along special stitch markers for free. These beauties look great with the yarn. And they look pretty cool in the snow too!

The snow pictures did turn out great! You should probably make me some socks out of that! You haven't made me any yet!

Oooh, can't wait to see what you make with it! I'd probably buy anything named after Harry Potter books too ;)
