I guess I am in the thrifty knitter category. But, that doesn&#39;t mean I want to knit with craft store yarns. Finding that balance is really key for me. </p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://www.knittingdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=105131" width="1" height="1">http://www.knittingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2012/12/19/let-39-s-rock-some-socks.aspx#105112Sat, 22 Dec 2012 20:08:38 GMT44ce05d4-61e0-4251-b9ba-686eafad3c9f:105112sassycassie48<p>Yikes~! &nbsp;over $40 per pair of socks.

Would I feel overwhelmed? Overjoyed? Would I try to do something else besides socks with the yarn? I&#39;m a bit rebellious that way. Although I&#39;ve participated nicely in a knit-along at Ravelry. And I conformed. I made a sweater nearly exactly like the one on the pattern cover. Ha ha! Right down the color!!!</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://www.knittingdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=105015" width="1" height="1">
