SOCK MADNESS 3

I did a crazy thing (which really is not all that crazy for me) I joined the Sock madness 3 competition this year. You know how I like socks! Ok so I thought that I would share what yarns I have picked from my stash to use for each round I gave myself two options for each round so here they are.

They may not be used in the order they were listed in the supply list; they only tell us a few days before the pattern release which yarn is required. Also, you'll get all the patterns, even if you get knocked out in the first round, so you'll be able to use all your yarn, in any case. Assuming that you actually knit them all after the fact. Many of us had that intention in past years; don't know how many actually did it. Certainly not me!

thanks for the information. I guess I'll have to wait and see which I will need for whichever round when the time comes. Come on hurry up March 19th.
