There has been ALOT of sock knitting going on around here....
Blackjack socks with Lorna's Laces limited edition colorway - Robin's Egg from last April (yeah - it took me a year to knit these socks)
THESE socks however are looking more like one week to complete (I may start knitting all DK weight socks)
These are Duckies in Happy Feet
I am loving these! But both pairs are coming to an end and I decided to take the Yarn Harlot's advice. Make your own sock club. So I took the sock yarn from my stash, matched each one up with a pattern I would like to make with it and stuffed them each into a baggie. Then I had hubby choose one and that will be the next pair of socks I knit (yes, girls - PAIR! I am trying!) So... here is my make-shift sock club all set up and ready to go...
Exciting huh?
There are enough there for May-November if I knit a pair a month (lofty goal if I do say so myself - cuz none of those are DK weight...) but I am really thrilled about the prospect and hoping it keeps me motivated to knit a PAIR of socks and move on to the next one out of the grab bag.
I bet you just can't wait to see all these finished socks and what hubby picked next- any guesses?
Haha...I wonder who it is you're talking to in your post? I like your sock club idea and can't wait to see the results. I had no idea you had so much sock yarn. I'm down to my last skein so that will be a good purchase for my next shopping trip.
