Okay, so it's 2:23am and I am up too late looking at sock yarn. I don't plan to buy any, as I have enough stash to make 10 pairs of socks (at least), and have three pairs currently on the needles, but I'm looking anyway.

Yarn made from 70% merino wool and 30% possum.

I don't know what kind of possums they get this fur from, but the thought of wearing this anywhere on my body absolutely disgusts me.

eeeeeeeewwwwwwww.
