I Wanna Knit Socks - Yarn Give-A-Way

I want to knit socks...I want to knit socks all during February.  Maybe even during March.  Not just the two pairs that are lanquishing in little project bags on a corner of my counter.  I wan to knit Fun Socks.  Your favorite socks.

So...I'm having a Yarn-Give-A-Way.  Two Skeins of Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock Yarn in Ysolda Red.  Each skein is approximately 215 yards.  Enough to make your own pair of socks.  And red for Valentine's Day!

How do you enter?  Just a leave a comment below and tell me about your favorite (knitted) sock pattern and where I can find it.  Leave as many different comments as you like.  I will use a random number generator to decide the winner.  All entries must be submitted by January 31st at 11:59 pm.  I'll announce the winner on February 1st!

I'm looking forward to hearing about your favorite sock patterns!

I'm Seeing Red!

Red yarn, that is! Look at these beautiful yarns that I found at http://www.jimmybeanswool.com/. First, this beautiful Malabrigo sock yarn called, are you ready, Ravelry Red! What a great name!

Next, from Lorna's Laces, another sock yarn called, yep you guessed it, Ysolda's Red. Perfect for knitting up an Ishbel shawl which is on my project to do list!

Why the great interest in RED yarn? My niece is going to the University of Maryland next year! Yay Magpie! That means I get to knit red hats, red socks, red shawls, red sweaters, red scarves, red afghans...you get the idea!

Go Terps!
