I don’t even remember where I got this one, though I love the base.  I think I got it at a destash, along with another colorway that I knit a pair of socks for my mother out of.  No project photos or pictures of the other yarn, sorry, it was a situation that just got away from me.

I love this color, and this yarn.  It’s on Marianne Dashwood, and it’s a very solid yarn with a good twist… nice sock yarn.  My mother has had not complaints that I know of about the socks I made for her out of the other skein.  I also love the title of the colorway… Belle, from Beauty and the Beast (my favorite Disney movie and favorite character.)  I love Belle because she knows when to stand up to Beast, and because she loves to read.  Best gift ever?  Beast gives her a library.  A library.  A library with ladders because the bookshelves are so tall.  How great is that?


I love the colors of this – brown like Belle’s hair, blue like the Beast’s eyes, yellow like Belle’s dress… it all just fits together.
