I bought this lovely hand dyed yarn on a visit to Portland, Maine a few years ago and I've been saving it for something special. Then a few months ago I just decided that I didn't need to wait for any special occasion - using the yarn itself would be the special part. I loved the Daphne socks I made for my friend Kira last year, so I decided to do another pair of those.
