Spring is in the air!

And with Spring, I am seeing more about cotton yarn than wool. That is a good thing for me because wool is just not my thing. I love seeing the beautiful things other people make with wool, but I really have no use for it in South Florida. Even the little socks I made (see previous post) in thin acrylic yarn are getting too warm. I'll save them for my upcoming trip to the mountains of Panama where the nights are much cooler.

I am still fascinated with socks. I guess they're my new fad. Then I got to thinking: how about socks made of cotton thread? Something really thin, on tiny needles. Have you made cotton socks? Let me know in the comments how they worked out. Were they comfortable, did they stretch enough, did they last a long time?

I see some very nice patterns online, such as:

Crystal Palace Panda Cotton

And, of course, Ravelry has a lot of choices of lovely patterns
