september 09 mystery sock and the post

Yep, Yellow is taking over in the knitting world.
It seems that everybody (oke, almost everybody)
is knitting the Mystery Sock designed by Nancy Bush
for this Ravelry group:
(sock knitters anonymous) In bright yellow.
Bought this sockyarn at the handwerkbeurs in Zwolle
or Rotterdam last year
but it has no label.
It was from a booth with very bright (or screamy)
yarn.



And this goes to the mailbox before 17:00,
a RAK envelop
and the Give Away envelop!
