Southern Summer of Socks!
I’ve signed up for the Southern Summer of Socks knitalong - specifically for those of us in the southern hemisphere, but all are welcome. It starts on October 1. At last I will get to knit sockses with the best of ‘em, and count my pairs!
I worked out last night that I have enough sock yarn stashed to knit at least 30 pairs of socks. At least 30 pairs. That’s not counting the yarn that is not specifically designated as sock yarn, but which I intend to knit socks with. I am busy thinking up my personal Sock Challenge to complete over the summer!
In order to do this, I must finish my current pair quickly to begin anew. The current socks are in Tofutsies, which I am finding is lovely to knit with on size 2.25mm - I only wish it came in solid, or darker, colours. I also need to come up with a reward for myself, which shall be some of the ‘Raven Series’ of colourways currently teasing us on the front page of Blue Moon Fiber Arts. I want more dark handpainted sock yarns so that I can get away with wearing them to work!
In non-sock news, a bunch of my lovely friends gave me a massive gift voucher from The Knittery for my birthday, which I have spent
I got some DK silk/merino in charcoal, enough to make a fabulous cardigan/jacket for work; and I also got a skein of the silk/merino 2-ply in ‘Lime Delight’. Mmmm.

30 pairs! Now I feel as though my sock yarn stash is really pathetic, which is dangerous, because then I feel as though I might as well Give In To Temptation
