KnitPicks new Felici fingering and sport weight sock yarns (well, they were new when I got the yarn) is a super soft yarn that makes for comfortable socks although with crochet, you’ll get a bit of a massage as you wear them. The original yarns have five alternating stripes while the newer colorways have six, which means a shorter repeat, especially for crocheted socks. When using the fingering yarn, I got about four rounds for each stripe, so expect about three rounds with the new colorways. Each colorway is a limited edition and once they sell out, they’re gone. Of course, that meant that I had to immediately go buy more of the Boardwalk and Picnic colorways that I’d been sent.
