Sock Wars

Sock Wars Winner

I saw the article about Sock Wars today on the front page of the Wall Street Journal.

I love to knit socks. I wish I'd known about it before. Players eliminate each other by knitting socks. If you are eliminated you have to mail the unfinished socks you are working on to the person who eliminated you, so that she can finish them off and eliminate another person.

Sock Wars has a Yahoogroup.

While looking for information about Soxk Wars, I came across a knitting blog I like called Yarnivation. I think but am not completely sure that the blog author Julie Gardner is the organizer of Sock Wars. I like the works in progress chart in the side bar. I want something like that.

Sock wars is not to be confused with the other Sock Wars, which is Star Wars acted out by sock puppets.

  1. I to just recently found out about Sock Wars by reading the article in Wall Street Journal. I thought this was great. I love knitting socks and wish I would have known about it earlier. However, I will be ready next year. I also signed up for Death by Socks another sock wars game. It start Jan. 15, 2008, I can not wait. I'm a pretty fast knitter and hope to assasinate a few before I'm taken out. Good Luck. Merry Christmas and Happy Knitting!
