Hermione’s Sockalong

Kollabora is hosting a sockalong for Hermione’s Everyday Socks and since I’m one of the only people in the world to not have knit a pair of these, I thought I would join up.

I also happen to have a bargain basement skein of sock yarn that will let me feel like I’m de-stashing in a more major way than I actually am.  You see, I have made a vow (the kind that interests no one but me) to not buy more yarn until I have knit five more substantial projects.  Socks are substantial, right?

I also want more experience knitting them as I think they’re the only knitted gift that will ever, maybe, see the light of day in southeast Texas.  That’s a big maybe.  Anyway, they’ve cost me a whopping $1.48, so what have I got to lose?
