This is a wonderful limited edition gift set, perfect for a knitter on your list, or for you to make and gift as a finished product.

Last June, Lorna's Laces launched a very intriguing new sock yarn called Solemate. The fiber is made up of 55% superwash merino +15% nylon + 30% Outlast viscose sock yarn. You're probably wondering "what is this Outlast she speaks of?" That's a fair question. Outlast is this crazy fiber that interacts with your body's microclimate to moderate temperature from being too hot or too cold. It was used by NASA. Ferrari uses it for their race car seats.
Quite unique, don't you think? And perfect for socks! It has a nice tight twist just like Shepherd Sock, but it's three ply instead of four.
At the same time, Soak Wash Inc. launched their newest product, Heel Foot Cream for feet worthy of hand-knit socks, under the premise that one should give sock-loving feet some serious love as well.
And so here we can offer a neat kits, perfect "quick, easy and fabulous grab-n-go" for gift giving.
So to quote: "Put your best foot forward with this limited edition collection of kits." (I love the pun of it all.)
Included in each is one skein of Solemate along with Heel Foot Cream. And as a little extra gift, you will also find Mini-Soak tucked inside each box.
We have a very limited supply of:
Peppermint Heel with Beverly Solemate (that's the one with the blues and greens in the yarn)
Spearmint Heel with Lincoln Park Zoo Solemate (mostly roses in the yarn)
Scentless Heel with Purple Club Solemate (the one with the yarn in the purple colorway, natch!)
Cucumber Heel with Zombie BBQ Solemate (variegated colors in the yarn -- last photo here)
The photos to the right side here shows them in that order. Order via the drop-down menu -- make sure it is set as you would like before you check out.
A great gift -- I find it delightful!
