Well, folks, we've had a good run, but it is drawing to a close (less than 10 hours!!)...
I can hardly believe it's been a year... indeed, for me, it's been about 6 months (my computer was stolen in October so I'm posting hastily--and against policy--from my workplace)...
CONGRATULATIONS!
to those of you who have met and/or exceeded your own expectations...
and a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of those who were up to giving the challenge your all.
I must admit, I finished far short of the goal. I lost a lot of enthusiasm when 1 1/2 socks and 17 pairs-worth of yarn were stolen (in the theft mentioned above). Yes, I know, WHO steals sock yarn?! I think it was a grab-and-go kind of deal --> they took 3 of my bags (computer bag, purse, and woven hobo sack), how did they know what was in the third one! Normally, I would give it another go, but I'm ready for more of a variety in my knitting...
Here's the rub:
I did have fun facilitating the 52PP... so let your friends know that there will be a 52PP 08-09 beginning on 1 June 2008! Sign-ups will end 31 May 2008.
TO SIGN UP: email your name, email address, and website (if applicable) to eknitabeth@gmail.com
If you sign-up post haste, please do not expect a response before 25 May 2008. I have VERY limited computer access and, thus, few chances to check my email!

Didn't realize that your sock yarn was stolen, almost as bad as the computer.
My condolences.
But, like you I am not going to do this again next year.
Vest a month plus sock contests, but not 52 pairs of socks.
Thank you so much for organizing this!
I don't know what would upset me worse -- the sock yarn or the computer! That's too bad, I didn't know anything about it. Hope if they knit socks with the yarn that they get holes in them all!
I'll be back for round two and will hopefully hit a higher number next time!
I'm so sorry to hear about your sock yarn (and the computer of course).
Thanks so much for putting on the plunge. Seeing everyone else's socks has been really inspiring. I'm not ready to commit to a second year -- yet. But all those patterns collected for this year that I've not yet knit may end up enticing me back in again.
