prodigal of blue


Nature rarer uses yellow
Than another hue;
Saves she all of that for sunsets,
~Prodigal of blue,


Spending scarlet like a woman,
Yellow she affords


Only scantly and selectly,
 

Like a lover's words.
~Emily Dickinson

I'm knitting a lot in yellow right now. Love it :0)
Your sock design looks cushy soft.

Love the marriage of image and word. My daughter, named for Emily Dickinson (and Carr and Bronte) is knitting with yellow.
