The yarn's colors were appealing to me so strongly that I just had to have it. I am sure you all know the feeling. I feel like a child in a candy store when I see yarn around me. Gold, turquoise and magenta colors intertwine in such ways that they look like confetti fell on the uncolored yarn. This yarn is hand-painted and reflects one of ancient South American color combinations, and it just may brighten anyone 's day.
However, you may replace this yarn with another fingering sock yarn of your choice, the one that appeals to you. Sock yarns are so beautiful these days, and there are a lot of talented yarn "painters". I may try to paint my sock yarn (or any other type of yarn) one day myself. I will keep you posted.

Note: Most of the time I work as fast as I can to keep up with knitting and crocheting requests. I have to videotape, edit videos, then convert them & upload them to my channel. After that often I post on my blog patterns. I answer many questions, which means that often I work up to 16 hours a day. I would tremendously appreciate IF anyone of you who finds an error in the written pattern, so please, let me know - where (what rows) and what may be the problem. Many future knitters & crocheters from our artsy and crafty virtual world will thank you for your good deed, including myself.
