I found this cone of Mayan Green yarn at a thrift store a long time ago. I know it isn't to old because of the labels that are in it but I liked the color and at 1.00 who could go wrong. Crafted with pride I think is only been on labels in my life time so not to old. I do not know the company if any one knows from this label let me know as I like the yarn and would love to get more in other colors yes I know at the real price not the thrift store price.

I had a real hard time photo graphing this color it looks like a rich turquoises green but didn't come out that way in photos. Looks to be 100% cotton not sure how they will wear in boots but this is an experiment so here I go anyway with that in mind.
I didn't know what to do with it when I didn't knit that tells you it was over a year ago when I found it. Now I have this idea to make a pair of stockings using it. I have not decided yet if they are over the knee or if I am going to make them into a set of winter tights will have to work that out as I have never done either. 
This is a sort of winged pattern meaning I am making it up as I go so we will see how it goes together. When I get the second sock to the same length as the first one I am going to put them on the same circular needle and just work it that way from here on out, yes two balls of thread have to be used.
