The colors available in this Shepherd Sport line (plus the other awesome Shepherd lines) are rich and beautifully compliment each other. My favorite aspect about the yarn is that each time I wash my precious socks (in the washing machine, at that!), they keep getting softer and more luscious. Thank you so much for carrying this yarn!

I used Jeans; it's not really jeans-colored in my opinion, but a delicious mixture of dark sky/cornflower blue, dove gray, violet, and navy. I've heard reports of pooling problems with Lorna's Laces used in socks, but I used it for a pair of gloves so I did not notice any issues. I would definitely use it again.
