Since it seems I've lost the ability to stick to a schedule, I've decided to change Yarn P*rn Friday to Yarn P*rn of the Week. WIP Wednesday will become WIP of the Week also. This way, if I miss a Wednesday or a Friday, I don't need to stress myself out about it.
So, on to the yarn!!
This is a pretty skein of Mama-E's C*Eye*Ber Fiber Sock in a colorway called Mermaids, and it's one of the first skeins of sock yarn I'd ever bought. On a whim, I checked my PayPal records to see how long ago I purchased this skein, and it was exactly a year ago today!!! I'd say it's high time I knit it up. It's destined to be cast on soon and become Monkeys.

That should look good. I haven't seen that pattern knitted up yet.
I love the Monkey pattern - it knits up so quickly. And it shows color nicely - those will be beautiful socks for spring.
I think that is a great pairing of yarn and pattern - and very springy!
That yarn would look great as monkey-socks.
That's so pretty! I love pink and green together.
Perfect sock yarn for spring!
OOOOH I can comment!!!

Great colors for spring socks--and monkeys will look great in that pattern!!
I think you bought that about the time I bought puppymomma from her. Gorgeous yarn!!
I haven't been brave enough to try socks yet. Maybe if I had yarn that pretty... :)
Gorgeous and appropriate for spring. It looks like I'll have to give those Monkeys a try as well as it seems to be the thing to do these days!
Pretty yarn! I think it'll make excellent Monkey socks!
Beautiful yarn! I've been admiring the monkey pattern too. Can't wait to see how yours turn out. Happy knitting.
Beautiful Karen and I see no reason why you can't have eye candy and fiber days whenever you like ;)
You will love that pattern---I love your yarn!!! xoxo
Pink and green is one of my favorite color combos. It always looks so happy and fresh.

Perfect decision about the "... of the week" thing - this way you won't get stressed out with having to stick to a certain day!
And gosh, this yarn goodie - reminds me of summer and a fruity mint-strawberry-sorbet - yummy!!!
I think that yarn will be PERFECT for Monkey. That yarn is so pretty and spring-like. Actually, it looks like mint and cotton candy. Mmm... must be lunch time.
Oh that yarn!! I'm so in love with those colors together. How yummy!
Ok, I am still catching up. You sure have been busy!
