I'm participating 52 Pair Plunge, where we try to knit 52 pairs in one year. Sounds mad, I know it, but I've really enjoyed it so far! Now when I'm alone with children all day long, I have plenty of time to knit and I feel I'm really making a dent in my sock yarn stash.

I've finished three pairs this month and will soon turn the heel on second sock of my fourth pair.



Man socks for Christmas. I haven't yet decided which relative will get them. Yarn is Opal factory test color.





Socks for Aleksanteri in Dale Baby Ull.



Waterfall socks by Babs Austermann, yarn is Posh Yarn Emily in Loot. I got the pattern from Woolgirl sock club a year ago and thought it would look better in solid yarn.

Brilliant - one a week is a bit demanding for me. But I could use up almost all my sock stash in a year!!
