Not quite three months later, here's the after, not including a pair I made with yarn that wasn't in the box and the pair I was working on when I started...
My little experiment was more successful than I expected. Even though I can cheat all I want, I was motivated to cast on with all of the pretty the yarn before it disappeared back into my stash.
Last week, I put away the three skeins that were left and pulled out different colors that I'm excited about, this time thinking about Valentine's Day and spring. In another three months, I'll do it again. (How weird is it that I've already got a few of the summer yarns picked?)
Sock Madness starts in March and I'll dig through my stash for whatever yarn suits the patterns. I've also been drooling over some patterns that aren't socks or written for sock yarn. But I think I'll keep rotating my stash for the rest of the year and see what happens. Three of the four fall pairs were knit from yarn that had been buried for years.

ReplyDeleteWow! Good for you!
My socks are starting to wear out (after 8 or 10 years) and I can't seem to schedule enough time for either socks or quilts!
Good for you. They all looked great. I so missed knitting.
