I so want to participate

I have been watching a new podcast for just over a month called "The Canadian Knitter Podcast".  I have been loving it.  The last episode (episode 6: "He's so ugly, He's cute"), Sarah the podcaster mentioned a Paperbag Sock challenge for 2015. 

The basic "rules" of the Paperbag Sock challenge is to create your own sock club:

1. Pick 12 skeins/balls of yarn
2. Pick 12 sock patterns
3. Pair the yarn and the patterns
4. Stick them in a paper bag
5. Pick a bag at random for the month
6. Knit the pattern with the yarn thats in the bag

Sounds simple enough right? I have attempted to do something similar many time and I think the most I've managed is about 7 or 8 for the year. I'm still narrowing down the patterns that I have 18 of so far and I have to increase the amount of yarn since I only seem to have 10 available skeins.  I have a few undyed skeins that I'll have to dye.  The plan is to match up the existing skeins with patterns and then dye the undyed skeins to "match" the patterns.

I make no promises for 2015 but I will try to make it.  Now I'm off to buy some paper bags
