In which Kate is somewhat incapable of taking great photos of yarn with PhotoBooth

I just had a one skein of yarn photo shoot (yay PhotoBooth), and while I normally *love* what I take with PhotoBooth, tonight ... well ... the lighting is off. I tried taking pictures with one lamp on, then two, then three, and the pictures all came out awkward.

Here is a (poor image quality) picture of what I plan to knit into a pair of socks during vacation:

Yarn: Ella Rae Lace Merino. 412 yards.

...and I hear some little (hopefully little) creature in the attic above my room. Off to investigate!
