Get ready for our next KAL – the Never-Have-I-Ever Sock-along which will run February 14 through May 15. Make socks like you’ve never made before - try a new heel, using a pattern if you usually stick with vanilla, knit from a sock blank for the first time, do color work - or maybe try socks for the very first time! Please go to the Never-Have-I-Ever Sock-along Chatter thread to join the fun.
