50 Socks - 50 States GALLERY - Crystal Palace Yarns

We are having fun watch the KAL for the book (see link below) as well as hearing from knitters who are working on socks from the book.

If you have knit a sock (or 2 or 3) from the 50 Socks - 50 States book, and you used Crystal Palace Yarns for your socks, we'd love to show off a photo in the Gallery. Email cpyinfo-at-straw.com and put "50 Socks Photo" in your subject line. Please add any personal notes or comments about your socks, your name and where you live (just city, state or country) - no addresses. We'd love to show off your creations!

As we add each sock this table will grow. Each sock leads to a page with larger photos, knitter's name, & more details.	Michigan Boot Sock Merino 5	Black Hills South Dakota Mini Mochi	Bling Arkansas Panda Silk

You can find many fun knit-a-long contests online using Crystal Palace Yarns.
The 50 Socks - 50 States group on Ravelry is running 2-month long KAL's using three patterns from the book for each run.
For the first run (Jan 31-March 31), knitters worked on Michigan (easy), California (intermediate) and Arkansas (advanced) socks.
See what socks are next for the second run, starting April 1.
Participants must complete two socks and show pictures at cast-on and at completion to be eligible for prize drawings.

Other KAL's using CPY can be found on Carefree KAL and the Socks 'n More blog.
Like book clubs, Knit-A-Longs are great for knitting classes or knit night projects.
