Thrifty Knitters Sock Club
I've joined this Group on Ravelry. It's a Sock Club for people who don't want or can't afford to join one of those Sock Clubs that sends out yarn and patterns each month to its members. In the Ravelry Group, two patterns are issued each month and you choose which one to knit.
January's patterns are Cabletini (toe-up) or Bellatrix (cuff down). I have chosen Cabletini because my first Bellatrix was not a success and, having frogged a whole sock, I couldn't face doing it again.
I am using a Red sock yarn, cheap and cheerful off ebay (about £2). My first attempt at photos wer not successful because of the light, I'll have another go during daylight at the weekend. I'm really bored with the pattern though and I'm beginning to wonder if I have enough energy to actually finish the pair before the end of the month. It's a very nice pattern and I'm sure I will wear the finished socks, they're just boring to knit.
Why not join us for February - patterns are Earl Grey and Sydney......

I totally dropped the ball on this one, but I have finished a spinning project of long standing, the Orcling's socks, AND I'm going to finish the "Something for a baby" by the deadline, I'm sure of it!
I'll be back on track with Earl Grey. I really will!
Can't wait to see your Cabletinis!
Hi there! I just wanted to drop you a line to expect some SP11 goodness from your own fairy godmother! ;)
