But… but…. it’s so pretty. And the stripes lined up perfectly!

I bought a ball last month, I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

The colors are gorgeous, and I know you can conquer this yarn.

I was fortunate to experience only one break in the Noro sock yarn I used for a Shetland Triangle. I was two rows from finishing, and close to a bead placement, so I sweat a bit over fixing the yarn. I re-wound my ball before knitting it up because I had heard so many tales of woe with this yarn.

How frustrating to have it breaking all the time!

You have no idea how much better you just made be feel…I was feeling pretty deprived at the fact that no stores around here carry the noro sock yarn. Thanks for your post :)
