Yes it’s back!
Last year I went for a sprint of a challenge. This year I know I can’t commit to knitting solidly for a month so I’ve opted for more of an endurance challenge.
This year I plan to knit a pair of socks every week, I’m a little behind in starting but I’m sure I’ll catch up!
I’m hoping to have donations of yarn from indie dyers again which made last years socks so wonderful to knit and hopefully wear.
I launched my fundraising yesterday and already I have 9 requests and I’m up to 25% of my fundraising total. How brilliant is that! My target is to raise £1000, I’m quietly hoping to exceed this, shhhh!
Some are returning feet and others are new toes to knit for. I suspect some weeks I’ll be tempted to knit more than one pair so I may exceed the 52 I’ve got in mind if there are enough donations.
Here is a link to my JustGiving page and if you’d like a pair of socks let me know your foot size and I’ll add you to the growing list.
The Sockathon 2024 page will get updated as and when I have the time during the year, I’m sure I’ll mention it every now and then here on the blog too.
