The photo credit for this beauty goes to Susan Moylan. This classic red truck sits on her property, with many other retired friends. I loved how this truck's original shade of red had faded to two different shades of pink, with a coat of rust added to the patina. This colorway has red, two shades of pink, a hint of silver for the chrome and a bit of brown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMemento Sock base:\u003c\/strong\u003e 55% Superwash Bluefaced Leicester, 45% Silk Fingering weight 438 yards \/ 100 grams Hand wash recommended\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that color variations may occur from skein to skein as a result of hand dyeing.

Well this lovely yarn might not be able to chase away life's troubles, but it will feel soothing against your hands! This colorway was inspired by a sand mandala being created by Buddhist monks. The monks create gorgeous mandalas out of colored sand with painstaking detail. Each mandala will have a theme or will revolve around a specific deity. The sand used is a dense sand or very finely ground stone, gypsum is often used; this limits the destruction of the design by a sneeze or the wind.  At the end of the ceremony or festival that the mandala was created for, it is swept away by the deities first and then the rest of geometric design. The sand is then collected in a jar, wrapped in silk fabric, and taken a body of moving water, such as a river, and returned to nature. This is to symbolize the shortness of life, that tomorrow is never promised. The wonderfully detailed inspiration photo that you see was taken by my incredibly talented web designer, Rachael Albers, at a conference in California. If you have ooh'd and aww'd at my website, you can find more of her work \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.rkaink.com\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e. This yarn color is primarily a reddish-pink, golden yellow, and sky blue. The colors mingle nicely at their mixing points to give just a hint of orange, and green. This yarn base is a combination of alpaca, linen, and silk and has wonderful drape!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVoyager\u003c\/strong\u003e 50% Baby Alpaca, 25% Silk, 25% Linen Fingering weight 3 ply 438 yards \/ 100 grams Hand wash only!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that color variations may occur from skein to skein as a result of hand dyeing.
