Hello all of you sock knitters out there in Nashville and beyond. Greetings from cloudy Seattle. I'm Kathleen Cubley, the blog mom for the sock club. I'm so happy to meet all of you and begin our journey with Pat and the folks at The Neighborhood Knit Shop.
We'll use this blog to chat about our progress on the sock of the month, help each other with pattern problems, and show off our gorgeous work.
The first sock we'll be working on is Walking Rib from Schaefer Yarns, using Schaefer "Lola" (100% merino wool superwash; 4 oz. skein Little Lola - 280 yards).

Thank you so much for taking us on in our new sock club at TNKS...
I work at The Neighborhood Knit Shop. I have finished one of the Lola Walking Rib Socks and I have almost finished the other. I used the magic loop and did mine toeup.... I followed the pattern as it is written as far as the rib, however, now I am wondering if I should have followed the ribbing beginning with Row 8 instead of Row 1. Too late now, but I love the way this sock fits so I will be making more... I would like to hear what you and others think I should have done
Hi Sharon,
Good to meet you! I'm using magic loop, too. I should have done a gauge swatch, though! I think my socks are too small for me. They'll make a good Christmas gift. I like the ribbing

Ha, Sharon. I've already finished both of mine & working on a different pattern!
