A knitted celebration of love and music
Join me for a knitted celebration of the sentimental, full-hearted story The Sound of Music. Our e-book "My Favorite Things" contains seven fresh patterns, and we are delighted to bring you a luxe project kit for one of the fingerless mitts: Crisp Apple Strudel (pictured).
Your kit includes:
-
1 skein of La Bien Aimée Merino DK yarn in an exclusive colorway that was hand-dyed just for us in Paris. You will have plenty of yarn to make either two pairs of short mitts or one pair of long mitts. The skein is a generous 250 yards and 115 grams of 100% superwash Merino DK yarn.

Inspired project bag: Your drawstring project bag is made from a custom-printed fabric that evokes the movie, and the interior print is one of our originals from the collection, a fair isle edelweiss flower with yarn stripes.
-
Stitch markers: We'll surprise you with two sets of stitch markers inspired by the movie.
-
Luxury bath bar: A handmade, cold-process soap with a fresh, Alpine scent and speckled with calendula petals.
-
Apple strudel progress marker: The most adorable miniature slice of apple strudel you'll ever find, with a lobster claw clasp to mark your knitting progress.
Be sure to add the ebook to your kit if you don't already have it, and you'll be able to download it immediately.
Your kit is ready made and will ship out to you within 2 to 3 days.

House Sock is a very robust yarn. You might find that it knits up a bit more plush than other sock yarns, so you can possibly cast on fewer stitches. I usually cast on 56 stitches for socks knit from traditional sock yarns, but cast on 52 with House Sock.
For socks, aim for a gauge of 7.5 to 8 stitches per inch, which is usually achieved with a needle size of 2.25mm to US size 2 (2.75mm).
House Sock is composed of 90% Targhee wool. Targhee is one of the newer sheep breeds and its wool is three-quarters fine wool (like merino) and one-quarter long wool, making it a wonderful combination of soft and strong. You can read more about the Targhee sheep's fascinating history here.

The colors for this, and all our house yarns, are dreamed of in San Francisco, where my home studio is located. This particular colorway was also hand-dyed by me in San Francisco.
I use a variety of creative inspirations for my colors, from the colors of my beloved San Francisco, to literature, to Pantone inspirations.
Yarn is dyed in small batches, with color applied by hand and using professional acid dyes.
Care: We recommend that you hand wash our yarns in cold or lukewarm water and lay your knitted item flat to dry. While superwash yarns are treated so that they can be machine washed, taking care to wash gently and air dry will greatly prolong the life of your handknit item.
