My "Other" Handpainted Yarn

While my mom was visiting, I decided to show her how I hand paint yarn. (Like I'm a professional. It's only my second skein!) So I made this. It was a lot of fun to do it with my mom watching. She refused to comment in any way shape or form. She was afraid that I would use her suggestion and the yarn would end up sucky.

I really do need to start knitting this one up. It isn't self-striping, so I have no idea how it's going to turn out. But I don't want to cast them on until I finish up my other socks!
