Reminder - Sock Yarn Doesn't Count

I would just like to make the point that sock yarn DOESN'T count as stash, as someone recently reminded me.
Besides, that only brings me to enough yarn to make 32 pairs of socks. I think. Now so far this year I have made, um...one and a half pairs. Let me see, that means at the current rate it will take me just under eleven years to knit it all up. If I were to be so obsessive as to do such a calculation.

And anyway, last year I knitted five pairs actually...

LOL@ Knitbert!!!! I agree, sock stash isn't proper stash;-) I'm like you though, continue to buy sock yarn, even though my sock productivity is not good:-) Its just so pretty though!!!!!!!

It may not be stash but it doesn't half take up a lot of room in my drawer!!! :)

OMG, 32 pairs!!! *faints* Can I have some?! ;) I think you need to knit a few more pairs now, preferably this month!!

Knitbert, you are merely being prudent and maintaining a supply in case of shortages/fluctuations in the yarn-market.
