Honest I'll try

Kerry

I'm so saving all my sock WIPs. I'm really just a sneaky cheater at heart. (and I'm going to need all the help I can get to do this)

Abigail

I was doing a little thinking about this and here's what I came up with. How about if you set up seprate blog page for the KAL.

Then each person can blog about their progress. It would save you a lot of sanity in the long run. Trust me on this.
I would be glad to help you with this.

Let me know, Abigail

Nicole

I've set all of my socks in progress aside so I can finish a couple of things and use them in the KAL. I'm a dirty cheater at heart too!

casey

I cant wait.I am so excited. Thanks for letting me join.

May I join the KAL? In the grand tradition of "biting off more than I can chew," I think this would be perfect for my first one. I vow to do my absolute best and not neglect my schoolwork in favor of knitting socks... or at least not TOO much...

Peggy Jehle

May I join or is it too late?? I've just send an e-mail to eknitabeth@typepad.com, but I'm not sure of that address. I'm a novice but determined to take on sock knitting. I've seen the lone knitter, happily working away, and she'll get me over the rough spots. Anyone checked out the Woolly Boully sock yarn at etsy.com?? Lovely, the colors make me feel that spring will really appear! Pegy

Peggy Jehle

I must need to do more knitting, since I've been at the computer since 3 AM. I just looked at m posts time and thought, Lord, they'll think I'm nuts.

Cynthia

I e-mailed you too, but would you consider accepting a very late sign-upper?

I really really do hope so!
