Show me a Little Shame

Dear Knitting Philistine,

Please accept this letter as my membership application for the Multiple-Women Single-Sock Liberation-Movement.  I'm usually very good at avoiding the Movement.  Sneaking into the dark as they move by, digging into that 1/2 ball of yarn as soon as the first sock is of the needle.  No matter the time of day, that second sock was started!  But lately, I've given up.  I'm waving the flag.  You ladies and your flashy sashes, please let me join.  I pledge to start a Monkey or two.  I vow to be loyal to NO ONE sock!

Yours truly,
Lola

p.s. Sorry Sock pal!  But wouldn't you love a Ribbed sock & a Monkey?  Be bold, start a trend.

p.p.s I was already to get back to the needles.  Start chipping away at the NYC shawl.  Start the Peace Fleece Wallaby. BO the Sock Pal's first sock.  Oh we had high hopes for the weekend!  Then, we got our invitation.  I feel like Laney Boggs (minus the big boobs).  How will this house ever get cleaned for the big graduation party when there's exploring to do?

I've recently joined the one-sock movement as well! I never thought I would, but I now have 2 unfinished pairs, and I'm planning on casting on for a new sock this weekend. One sock knitters unite!

And welcome to Ravelry, with all its time-sucking goodness. I love it so.

Gah! You have your Ravelry invite! AND that Girl Scout Handbook?! Where is the justice, I ask you. Where is the justice in that?

You guys got your invite too? I got mine on Thursday and literally SCREECHED out loud with joy & delight! (And have been totally slacking at work ever since then as I've been spending most of my time uploading pics & putting in pattern/project/yarn info!)

Application has been approved! Knitting rules?? Finishing what you started? Bah, I have better things to do with my precious little free time--like knit what I want, even if that includes lots and lots of singlet socks! Happy to have received another victi--er, MEMBER of the club. ;)
