Corkscrew Mitten Class Homework

 Did you ever play with a slinky? Well, the twisted slinky-inspired springiness of this fingering/4-ply merino Jitterbug makes it a perfect fit for a sock, glove or hat project. The generous 360m/400yd length affords you plenty of material to construct a long pair of socks, and the color choices will have you clearing out an entire drawer for your new every-color in-the-rainbow sock collection. Once you put on your fun new hand-crafted socks, why don't you celebrate by grabbing a partner and doing the jitterbug? Life is way too short not to dance in your beautiful socks!
