I love knitting socks and I love sock yarn. I have the money and space for my sock yarn collection. The amount I have spent on this sock yarn I would have spent at least as much on cigarettes in one year (good thing I quit smoking almost a year ago!). Believe it or not, I know what pattern I will use with each and every skein of yarn - I love to make lists! So, to all those people that like some gratuitous sock yarn pictures, please enjoy. Anyone else...Come back soon! :)

Wow, I love your flash! Looks awesome.
Good God Alyssa, you weren't kidding when you said you had a lot of sock yarn last night! I can't wait to show these pictures to my husband, it makes me look so conservative in comparison. Don't forget to bring your Opal Tiger Stripes next week, I will buy it!
Thanks for sharing. It's fun to look at lots of pretty yarn!
Oooh those are gorgeous! of course now you've opened the door for me to ask which patterns you have listed for each of those!
The yarn shops have nothing at all on you! If all of the yarn companies went out of business, perish that thought, you would be set for many a long time to come,
Look at all that gorgeous Shepherd Sock...I dream of the day my stash of Lorna's Laces gets to be as big as yours! It's by far my favorite.
Yeah, I don't come close to that.
Oh dear me. I'm so freakin' jealous it's not funny. And I'm right there with you in number too. But I want the Lorna's, the Koigu and the STR and the...
Wow. Nice.
oh.my.gourds, what lovely yarn!! I'm so jealous!!
OH MY!!! SO many NICE YARNS! I LOVE your stash!
Aaah, so jealous! You have chocolate mint stripe, no fair!
But seriously, that's an amazing stash :)
I just want to wear the Lorna's Laces in a ring around my neck. It's not my favorite sock yarn, but it is so pretty to look at!
I did my clapotis in Black Pearl
I'm literally sitting here looking at your sock yarn dumbfounded. I believed you when you told use at GROUP about the sock yarn. It's just seeing all of it at once...
WOW.
< bowing down cuz I'm not worthy >
OMG!! Girl your stash is amazing!!! It totally makes me want to go out and buy more yarn, but I'm currently on a yarn diet.... :(
Hope you're doing well and I'm sorry I'm going to be missing so many GROUP nights!!
smooches
Alyssa
That is kind of an obscene flash. Oh my gosh. There isn't one in the group I don't love. You are back on the favorites list on my other computer!
That is obscene.
I am so jealous.
Wow. I didn't know they made an Aggie sock yarn (in the Hill Country Yarns picture), but now that I know, I'm desperate to get my hands on some. That 3-4 week wait for shipping is gonna kill me, though!
Thanks for sharing your sock yarn stash - it makes me feel better about mine. :)
