I think I've found my favorite base ever. At least for sock yarn. Springy, bouncy, scrunchy, and so fluffy--and when knitted up, almost velvety on the purl side. Shibui Sock has this base, and Aslan Trends Santa Fe (as far as I can tell), and Claudia Handpainted Sock and Koigu KPPPM (don't ask me what that stands for). A lovely base that looks like a little spring.
Here it is in the hank as Claudia Handpaints:
and here as Santa Fe.
It almost looks beaded. Of course, all the colors it comes in are delicious, but there's just a little something special about this base...
Oh, I'm back from my trip. I acquired a little yarn...
that's about a third of it.
