 My Little Monthly Luxury 1 of 52 
 Review by: nonstopknitter     (read nonstopknitter's 1 other review) Nov 07, 2009

Shepherd Sock is a top-notch yarn, one of the softest and most durable on the market. I've been knitting socks with it since the mid-nineties when I first discovered it, and I'm still wearing every pair. Add to that kind of solid reputation Jimmy's fantastic limited edition color line and you truly have a winner! Every month is something new and different and you can treat yourself for just a bit of cash if you go the sock route. With over a hundred colorways, I don't know how Lorna's keeps it fresh, but they always are coming out with a new colorway to die for!

Now safely tucked into my sock yarn stash, I look forward to having Autum Socks next October. The colors are even better than my computer indicated. I can hardly wait to see what next months color looks like.

I have purchased several of the monthly colors. They are wonderful. Knitting socks has become my passion. I can't get enough of them. I would recommend Lorna's Laces and Jimmy Been's to anyone and I have already done do. Keep up the good work. Connie Fontenot

I love the yarn but the colors are not always the way they appear online. For example, Black purl has more pink than purple in my skeins and when it is reviewed in one of the videos, they said it had a touch of green which mine did not have at all. Also, Shadow showed black, white and silver but it looks very different in person.

I love the way the stitch definition comes out so beautifully, and this particular colorway reminds me of all the candy at the bottom of a Halloween pumpkin. The socks wash and wear really well when finished up. I plan on making many more pairs out of the shepherd sock.

I use this yarn to knit matching sox to the outfits I knit out of the Shepherd Worsted and Sport. Just wish they would come out with a white sock yarn!

Only 4 stars because I have not started the project yet, so I don't know how the pattern will look or the workability of the yarn - - but just the overall appearance and initial feel and blend of colors ?????? I'll be buying more. Thanks!! Now - just got to get started trying to finish another project first
