Arne & Carlos Regia Sock Yarn Giveaway!


Hi, Knitters,
While I gather all of the prize information for the SBA Shawl Knitalong that just finished yesterday I thought I would put up a quick giveaway for a ball of the crazy-good Arne & Carlos brand-new, yet to be released in the US, Regia sock yarn line. I'll be back later this week with a recount of our hugely successful shawl knitalong, we had just under 300 shawls entered in our 6 weeks of knitting together. Some people entered as many as 3 or 4 newly knit shawls. It has been incredible and so much fun.

More on this later in the week!


I was sent some of the much anticipated Arne & Carlos Regia sock yarn to review and when I was sent more than one ball I thought I would share one with all of you!  The colorway I am working on in the photos is #3655.

The self-patterning yarn is beyond fun. All of the colorways are fantastic and lively just like Arne & Carlos. This is one of the most fun sock lines I have knit. You will love it, I promise. I think this is going to be a tough one to get your hands on. It is already available in Europe and has been quickly selling out. If you are interested act fast. 

Click here to find out more about the Norwegian knitting pair known as Arne & Carlos. I love them and have all of their books. They have a great spirit about them.


And because I know I'll be asked:
Needles: Signature Needle Arts US size 1 dpns, 6 inch length, stiletto point (All of their dpns are stiletto point only.)
Pattern: My free pattern called, How I Make My Socks
Sock Blocker: From theloopyewe.com
Project bag in the first photo: Lowlands Originals on Etsy


Here it is friends. Colorway #3656. For one of you.

To enter to win this fantastic sock yarn by Arne & Carlos for Regia leave ONE comment on this blog post. Be patient for your comment to appear, only click on post one time. I approve all comments and there is a delay. You must leave your email address or Ravelry Username so I can contact you if you win. 

Okay, friends, have at it! I will be back in a few short days with the SBA Shawl Knitalong conclusion and prizes and a randomly selected winner for the Arne & Carlos Regia sock yarn in the photo above.

Good luck and let the comments begin.....
