Self-Imposed Sock (Yarn) Club

I like to read Stephanie Pearl-McPhee's blog. Last year, she looked through her rooms full of yarn and decided that, instead of joining a Sock Club, where someone mails you new yarn and a pattern each month, she would create her own from what she already had. I, myself, have lovely yarns that I never seem to get to because something else screams "Knit me!" So, I did as she did, picked twelve projects and twelve sets of yarn, put them in Ziplocks, and will pull one (possibly at random) each month to work on.


Not all my projects are socks. There are two pairs of gloves and two small shawls in there, but all are made out of sock yarn. Or, at least, fingering weight yarn. Anyway, this is my Self-Imposed Sock (Yarn) Club. I know some of you knit. Would you like to start your own? You can make the rules anything you want, since it's yours.
