1 skein and 1 ball of bright yellow yarn on a white plank background.
Two of the yarn skeins are a bit darker, so I undid my original swatch. Now, I need to figure out how to deal with the crinkled yarn. Using it as-is would mess with the gauge, so I'll avoid that. 🤔

I have just finished a sock that fits my daughter PERFECTLY so of course she hates the color and said "no, thank you." 🤦♀️ (I meant them for me but they turned out too big. I was hoping she'd compromise her aesthetic.) #KnitterProblems
