I bookmarked it...

Is sock yarn the really fine stuff that comes in big spools, almost like thread spools? We used to use that for friendship bracelets...

OK, in the last week, Cisco has eaten THREE STICKS of butter. If I take one out of the fridge, forget about it for a second and walk out of the room, he steals it off the counter. I can never catch him doing it, and I have no idea how to train him that the counters are off limits, since he never ever does it when I’m around, and never goes after anything else I leave out.

I just went to take the garbage out, and he did it again, butter I had out to have with dinner. Two minutes. I’ve about had it. I’m sooooo mad at him right now.

It's a little thicker than that, but a little thinner than sport weight. It's commonly called fingerling or sock weight. It comes in all sorts of purty colors. I hope someday to make a pair of socks, but I'm going to have to use crummy yarn. I just can't justify wasting glorious, pretty yarn on... feet.
