I knit them out of Rabbitworks Fibre Studio Toe Jam (70% Merino 30% Silk) in The Gathering Storm colorway.  I originally started these back in August and they were my commute knitting, but I found myself not really wanting to knit on BART, so they languished.  Then, the socks I knit the husband last January developed a giant hole in the ball of one of the feet seemingly out of nowhere (Was a little sad about that because it was an 8-ply sock yarn that was supposed to be rather sturdy).  Thus, the first month of my personal stash yarn club is complete.    <\/p>\n<p><a title=\"New sock\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/zardra\/24369031409\/in\/datetaken\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1533\/24369031409_4d0159b70a_m.jpg\" alt=\"New sock\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a><script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>Last week I sat down and plotted what I wanted to knit, sock-wise, for the rest of the year.  I&#8217;ve mixed some WIP socks into it so that I can get them off the needles, but it&#8217;s mostly all unballed yarn I&#8217;ve been wanting to knit with.  February&#8217;s personal stash yarn club sock is just a plain knit sock out of Yarn Pirate Superwash BFL in the Calamity colorway.  I&#8217;m already passed the heel on the first sock and it&#8217;s not technically February yet.  I figure if I get these done quickly, I&#8217;ll pick up a larger project that&#8217;s been on hold and try to get some work done on it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Selected Personal Stash Yarn Club Projects<\/strong><br \/>\nI wanted to try to get some of the socks that have been hanging out on needles for a long time done so I can wear them.
