Year End Sock Poll

Behold, the Singleton Socks of Shame at year end 2009!

Singleton Socks of Shame as of year end 2009

Left to right (click to embiggen): 1-Pink Beads, 2-solid Meadowlands, 3-variegated Meadowlands, 4-Scar, 5-Fawkes, 6-Piscean, 7-Green Merino, 8-Juta's Stocking, 9-Julesokker, 10-Clouds, 11-Fox Faces, 12-Chain Link.

At year end 2008, there were 9 singletons, now there's 12. Alas, as 12 > 9, I've obviously failed in my fibery goal to reduce the official number of singleton socks buzzing roundabout Exit 151. ::gusty sigh to match today's gusty winds::

But knitters knit on through all adversity. So here's a poll and a new vow: vote for your favorite by leaving a comment. I'll knit a mate for the sock that gets the most votes during the Ravel*****s.

Redacted 6/26/12: The Ravelry event formerly known by a name that rhymes with and supposedly infringes on the Olympics™.

  1. That is a very hard choice, but I'll vote for #11 Fox Faces.

    (I'm not going to ask how you ended up with two Meadowlands in two different colors....)

  2. I vote Meadowlands since 2010 is a big year for the stadium...I guess 2009 was too...but that's why there are two socks.

  7. #6 Piscean - it looks a little more complex, plus the dark colors, get it out of the way first! Plus, it's pretty!!
