PLEASE! Help me find this yarn!

A couple weeks ago, I remember seeing this GORGEOUS bright (but not neon) pink and deep brown fingering/sock yarn, but I cannot for the life of me [I]find it[/I] now that I have the money to buy it. Any ideas? I’ve looks on ebay, little knits, simply sock, and I didn’t see if.

It’s driving me crazy because I want to make some yummy neapolitan socks :gah:

Well there’s this color in Lorna’ Laces–it includes some white too:

There’s also this yarn from Harmony:

Here’s someone’s hand-dyed:

Not quite what I’m looking for. The harmony is the closest, but the pink I’m looking for is paler.

Where did you originally see the yarn?

5

or can you narrow down WHEN you saw it- you could look thru your computer’s history files and look for it thatway.

That’s the problem… I have no idea!

Oh gosh. I guess I’m going to have to, since I can’t find it anywhere else. But I’m a power surfer, so this is gonna take a while :teehee:

Thanks girls :slight_smile:

Now I see you’ve looked at Simply Sock Yarn. The Loopy Ewe http://www.theloopyewe.com has many different lines of sock yarn, some from independent dyers too. Perhaps you want to scan through their offerings.

Okay, the Loopy Ewe used to carry a line of yarn from an indie dyer called Woolly Boully. If you read back through the dyer’s blog at http://theloneknitter.blogspot.com/ she says that she’s no longer selling wholesale, but she does sell through her Etsy shop and will custom dye. There is a picture of a shawl on her blog, knit from her yarn, that may be what you are looking for.
