So, I'm doing something really exciting lately... knitting a shop sample for my local yarn store, Yarn Stories! I was so excited when I saw the post on their Facebook page announcing their new shop sample program. I was given some options of what project I would like to make for the shop sample, and I fell in LOVE with the Smaug socks, so that's what I agreed to make! At the time I'm writing this post, I'm about 30% done with the first sock, and I'm loving the pattern and the yarn! As mentioned, I'm using the Smaug sock pattern found on Ravelry, and the shop provided the yarn for the project.... Malabrigo sock yarn in the color Botticelli Red. I confess, I did drool over this yarn for a couple of days before I actually started rolling it into a ball, and when I did start rolling it I was so obsessed that I had to take tons of pictures of the process! So I'm including a slide show below for you all to enjoy the splendor of my newest sock adventure. :) Don't be afraid to be creative, Nicole
