Sounds fun! Thanks for setting this up :)

So excited! This auto sign-up thing sounds very high tech too. What would you suggest I do if I know I'll be moving at the end of July but I don't know my new address? If it'll be too much hassle I can sit out, but I missed the first one too.

i am a sockaholic so this could be fun for me but i don't have a blog-can i do it anyway?

YAY!!!

I missed out on the first one (discovered it after deadline) and am SO excited you're doing it again! I'm all about the socks right now and am venturing into more challenging patterns, so this will be perfect. ;-)

Thanks for taking it on. You're a good egg. :-)

Aubyn, you don't have to have a blog. I just ask in case someone does, so their sock pal will have the address and can get to know them better. Also I can link to peoples' blogs and we can follow their progress that way. If you can take a picture of your socks in progress and send them to me by email, I'm happy to post a progress pic on the blog here for you.

Vicki, instead of your current address, why don't you submit the town, state, country of where you're moving to (some pals prefer not to ship overseas, so it'll help when matching you up if I know at least where in the world you'll be). Then there will also be a space on the sign-up form for extra comments where you can write that you'll be moving and will send a complete address later. Sound good?!

The system will be automated to cut down on my sorting and email work, but I'll still be looking over the list and will be able to correct mistakes and things, so don't worry about any special cicumstances not being understood by the computer. Just write anything special in the separate comments space and I'll find it!

You're surely tempting me!!!! Thanks for taking the time to organize and set-up such a fun thing!

now that Sockapalza got me hooked on socks, can I miss round 2? I don't think so!

Thanks for doing this .... again!

Thanks for organizing a second round! I was too busy when the first round was announced, but I feel tmuch more able to knit a fabulous pair of socks for my partner (to be)!! thanks again!

posted by lori on may 31, 2005


I am new to this so bear with my simple questions. Is it just one pair of socks? Or is it one pair a month? This would be so much fun to do, but I am slow at making socks...

posted by Liz on may 31, 2005


Yay! Thanks for doing this... I am definitely going to sign up!

posted by Dani on may 31, 2005


No worries, Liz, it's just one pair in the three months - that's it. :)

Alison,

Thanks for organizing round 2.

posted by emy on may 31, 2005


Great news -- I loved Sockapalooza 1 and have been looking forward to round 2. I'm even going to set my alarm extra early -- us west coasters don't want to miss the mad rush to sign up!

Thank you thank you thank you, hostess with the mostess!

i hope i get my socks this time!! i can't wait for round two!

posted by rachel m on june 1, 2005


I'm not sure which group I should sign up for. I've knit about 6 pairs of socks, but they have all been basic Yankee Knitter socks, nothing fancy. Does that make me a beginner?

posted by jenny on june 1, 2005


Rachel, you will get your "Sockapalooza One" socks. A generous donor is knitting for you right now!!

Jenny, you don't sound like a beginner to me. Non-beginner doesn't necessarily mean that you're making fancy, complicated socks. It just means that you're sure you can make a good sock. The beginners aren't quite sure since they've most likely never done one before, so it's best if they all swap their first tries with each other. Got it?

ohhh, i can't wait! I had so much fun with the first exchange and am busily planning for this one. and yes, i am willing to step in again as backup if needed!

posted by marti on june 1, 2005


Wheeee! More socks to knit up :-)
