Welcome to the second annual Through the Loops Socktoberfest Mystery Sock KAL. If you are a Ravelry member, please join us in the Through the Loops group as we knit-along. You may ask questions and discuss the pattern there. There will be a discussion thread in the group each week where you may post photos of that week's progress. I've already added this week's thread here.
When we have completed the KAL there will be a special thread in the Through the Loops Ravelry group to post photos of your finished socks. Only those who post photos of finished socks in that thread will be eligible for the prize drawing at the end of November. My apologies to those who are not Ravelry members but it's the only way I can manage the contest. Look for more details on the contest and prizes in the Ravelry Group in coming weeks.
Each week I will add to this PDF so that at the end of the KAL all of the parts of the pattern are in one place. (I think you will find it an improvement over last year's multiple files.) Also, there is a pattern page for the Mystery Sock '09 on Raverly now.
This week's clue is the cuff. I have designed the sock in three sizes, S, M, L with a cast on number of 56, 64 & 72 sts respectively. If you are using a finer weight fingering yarn, you may want to go up a size. The specs are listed on the pattern.
I hope you enjoy knitting the pattern as much as I enjoyed designing it. I look forward to seeing your socks!
Thanks so much! off to cast on now...
