Yes I can! First, you’re going to look for a wool that says “superwash”. You can ask any yarn store with help with this. I would go for eithertrekking or Regia since they have good manly colors and are a good value for the yardage.

I would like to knit a pair of wool socks for my son-in-law. Can you recommend a wool yarn that is machine washable/dryable?

The bush is a Northern Lights Azalia ( spelling?). It’s bred specifically to withstand northern winters. It generally blooms the first week or so of June, but it was late this year.

Have a great time at Sock Summit! It’s always nice to read another post from you. Am wondering, too, what the beautiful bush (tree?) is behind your lovely daughters?
