Oh I don't ever want to see another ribbed sock pattern as long as I live. Ok...maybe not that long, but not for a while at least! I joined a side activity in the HSKS5 swap I'm doing called The Dueling Club. The principal behind it sounded so fun I just couldn't resist. Basically, on a specific day at a specified time, a sock pattern is released, and you then "duel" your opponent by knitting that pair of socks for them. However you must get your pair of socks to them before they get the pair of socks they knit to you. The person that receives the pair of socks first is eliminated, having been "killed" in the "duel" by their opponent. Sounds super fun, doesn't it?
Well...the pattern was released on Thursday morning, and as soon as I got out of work I started straight away. From then on, for the most part, I knit my little fingers off until the pair of socks was finally finished this morning. As soon as I was done I wrote a quick note to my opponent, tucked it into a Priority Mail envelope with the pair of socks and some candy, sealed it up and drove it straight to the Post Office. Now it's a waiting game...Did she mail me her socks before I mailed her mine? Stay tuned...
