The campaign to bring back Prove It All Night

Hello everyone!

I hope you are all having a happy new year and that your new sock club packages get to you a speedily as possible.  I’m still working on my Cat Bordhi sock, so I’m not in a super big rush to get mine.

But what I would like to do is to ask Tina to bring back Prove It All Night to the website (when you get a chance of course).  Please!  Pretty, pretty please. 

Lets show Tina that there’s enough of us that want it.  So all you that want Prove It All Night, back me up!

(That goes for any other classic BMFA colorway that we want back for the next website update too!)

When do the 2007 sock club colors become available to the rest of the world?  I’ve been looking at the pic’s on Ravelry and Flickr and I’m needing some of those colors….

Today area schools were cancelled due to snow ….. we’ve received about 6 inches upon the 3-4 from last Friday, a snow day, too.  These days are knitting days for me …. I’m trying to finish two pairs of socks before the shipment comes, but I can hardly wait.  This is my second year in RSC after my daughter, Alcariel, suggested that I join.  Happy knitting is coming!

I was standing in line yesterday afternoon to see the Edward Hopper exhibit at the National Gallery of Art (Washington, DC) and knitting on my Emergency Sock Project (basic toe-up Austermann Step sock on a 12″ Addi circular–it’s the project I keep in the car for when I’m stuck in traffic or in a line) when a lady came up and asked what I was making.  I answered, “A sock, and I made the ones I’m wearing.”  She said, “So did I!” and proceeded to show me a lovely pair of Summer of Love Lace anklets.  I squeed and said, “Rockin’ Sock Club!”  We had a lovely “Yes, I’m signed up for and excited about the ‘08 club” moment, then my line moved and she was gone.

 Anyhow, Hi! to the nice lady, and I hope to see you here on the message board.  This reminds me again that it would be fun to have a Rockin’ get together in northern Virginia/DC/Maryland.  I’m not finished all of last year’s socks YET (too much Christmas knitting, plus I had to steal the needles from *my* Summer of Love for a pair of Valentine’s Day socks), but as soon as the V-Day socks are done, I’m going to get my GPA up.
