Discovered Eco dyed wool full of holes.
Embroidered with the kantha stitch.
Doing a few jobs at home this morning

First paircof socks darned using new mushroom.
Purple is the latest layer of darns.
I knitted these socks and I'm keeping them forever, even if they become 100% darn and 0% original sock.
