Bitsy Knits Sock Yarn Giveaway!

Today, we have a gorgeous sock yarn giveaway from Bitsy Knits called "Curry" and it was originally inspired by our May "Spice Market" box and was featured in our June box last month.

This is a special new yarn of Bitsy's called "Artisan Sock" which has a slight thick and thin look reminiscent of handspun. This is spun in the USA! You will find many yummy local fibers in Bitsy's store.

One of the yummiest listings I have seen in her shop has been this "Dragon Riders of Pern Sock club". I haven't read the series but the cover art colors are beautiful!
