There it was!  This awesome looking sock blank from The Loopy Ewe was staring me in the face--I so love

orange or shades of orange and the blue combined gave this fiber the look

of ME!  So, without hesitation I ordered immediately!  I don't do that

often as I like to use my stash--of which I have plenty!

But, this was right there--right in front of my face!  How could I resist?

It wasn't long before the fiber arrived and my first thoughts were--

what do I do with this?  I don't want socks--no one would see them.

Now, the search was on to find the right pattern--there are so many out there

that use gradient yarn--nothing really caught my eye 

until

this pattern popped up

and it was free!  Oh, how I like free! 

Shells and Tide  would be just perfect!  Alas, there isn't enough yardage to knit this yummy scarf--
oh well, I have the perfect pattern for another yarn.
