    This quilt is so inspiring. Vincent Van Gogh was a wonderful artist We are so lucky to see his work. I love the quilt! I know quilters are knitters too. In the fall 2013 I bought yarn from The Websters company to make a pair of socks in their "Starry Night" Opal yarn. I am wearing them today. With the left over yarn from the skein I made a pair of fingerless gloves and finished them yesterday in time to enjoy using them in the dreary damp, close to snow weather, today. I pair them with Magic Gloves. Do I feel special? You bet! There are additional yarn colors chosen from other paintings by Van Gogh. You can see them here.

    Thank you for your comments and sharing the site with the beautiful yarns. I imagine it was a delight to see how the gloves and socks turned out. It is wonderful to enjoy the surprises that creative people make with their efforts. Have a wonderful day.
