I have had joining a sock club on my wish list for several months now.  Well, last Saturday I went and did it.  I joined the sock club at the Boucle Yarn Studio here in Fargo ND.  They have a great mini-club that only has three socks a year.  This perfect for me.  I have so many projects going on that a pair of socks a month is a little out of my league right now. 

 

For the sock club kits Boucle has a company called the Unique Sheep custom dye their yarn.  This month’s yarn was dyed from a picture of the flood waters and the lace pattern is reminiscent of waves.  What a great tribute to our recent flood fight.  Here’s a photo from one of the clubbers who is fast as lightning knitting up their socks. I have yet to cast on.  However, I have hardly been able to keep myself away from my kit.  At the moment I am working on a gift for my mom.  Mother’s Day really snuck up on me this year!  I don’t know how…anyway, I am burning the midnight oil to get Mom’s gift done in time.  Just as soon as I get the gift done and paint that corner of the kitchen, I am jumping head first into my sock kit.  The soon I get at those projects the soon I can get to my socks…I’m off
