I found this great club via La over at JenLa. I am hereby joining the Wow! Look What I Found In My Stash Sock Club. What a clever idea. I can do this. And I love that it's FREE (well, actually there is a cost but it's s sunk cost!)
The original name for the club was “I wish I could join a sock yarn club but I already have way too much sock yarn in my stash”. The shortened name would’ve been “IWICJASYCBIAHWTMSYIMS” which is a little cumbersome. So we came up with this dandy club of our own.
Here are the rules:
Here are the rules:
- Once a month, go into your stash.
- Find a skein of sock yarn.
- Take a picture of it and post it on your blog or just wave it around and go “WOW! Look what I got this month!”
- You get extra points if the skein is still in the bag or box you brought it home in.
- You get super extra points if the receipt is still with the sock yarn.
- You get quadruple points if you actually make a pair of socks out of that skein.

Hee I love the idea of that club although I do belong to the STR Club. But I so need to work through my sock stash a bit. I just find some of the yarn I love so much I'm scared I won't do it justice or something.
sounds like fun! I don't have too much sock yarn though.... maybe next year;0
Fun! I joined the Ravelry group. Whee!
(60% done with my Lattice Leaf Wrap!)
Thank you so much for all your nice comments -- you made my day. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who's struggling. I know that isn't true, and yet it is my nature to feel incompetent, it seems. Sometimes I even feel like I'm a poseur at knitting! Then I shake that off and realize how hard I am on myself. Thank you again, it's so nice to feel encouraged.
Now that you're on Ravelry, you DO know there's a WOW club group, right? I'll send you an invite.
Yay - thanks! I am still working through all the groups on Ravelry and hadn't found this one yet. This is exactly the sort of encouragement I needed.
