So apparently today is Flash Your Stash Day. I’m not quite ready for that yet \ud83d\ude09
\nSo I decided that baby steps are in order. I’m flashing my Sick<\/s> Sock Stash.
\n

<\/a><\/center>
\nI didn’t start knitting socks until January of last year, when I found a ball of Opal that I really liked. All of this has been accumulated since then. Sock knitting hasn’t taken off here in Australia yet, and there is very little sock yarn readily available. From whats in the stash, only the 2 balls of Opal, the hand dyed yarn (by Celia<\/a>) and the Ozyarn sock yarn was obtained locally.
\nI have enough yarn on hand for 28 pairs of socks. That is my whole sick<\/s> sock stash, apart from the Mountain Colors I’m currently working with.
\nIn addition to the yarn shown, there is enough for 5 more pairs on it’s way from Elann<\/a>, and I’ve ordered enough Lorna’s for 3 more pairs from Lisa<\/a>.
\nI have Regia, Lorna’s Laces, lots of Elann Sock It to Me, Opal and Lion Brand. Of all of those, only the Opal is available locally. This yarn has come from lots of sources, Threadbear<\/a>, The Knitting Zone<\/a>, Elann<\/a> and Knit Happens<\/a>. Some has been gifted to me by Jill<\/a>, Katy<\/a>, Lisa<\/a> and Janine.
\nI love sock yarn \ud83d\ude42
\nI love that you can buy enough for a whole project, and it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. I like that it doesn’t take up much room, then sit there glaring balefully at you until you knit it. I love hand knit socks. I like knitting them. I’ve pointed out more to DH that I would like to receive for Mothers Day. I’ve asked for Sock Knitting Books for Mothers Day.
\nMy name is Donna and I am a Sock Yarn addict \ud83d\ude09
\nThe other yarn will remain hidden until further notice.
\nIn keeping with the sock theme, I have frogged the Friday Harbor sock. The pattern is for people with nice slim little ankles. I don’t even have ankles. My legs look like legs that little kids draw – straight down to the foot, no tapering, just tree trunks. \ud83d\ude09 A new pattern will be found for the yarn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
