Welcome to the Socknitters community! This post will grow into an introductory post and FAQ for subscribers in the weeks and months to come. We'd also like to offer a list of sock knitting resources, including links to Ravelry groups, places to buy sock knitting supplies, good book reviews, and other resources.

You can help by leaving a comment to this post listing your five favourite Internet sock knitting resources.

Some questions and ideas for discussion to get us started

[kniteracy]

I'm hoping this community will turn into a great place not only to get advice about sock knitting and show off our cool FOs, but also for general sock knitting (and designing!) discussion. So with that in mind, here are a few things to get us started.

• Who's the greatest sick designer out there, and why?
  
• What's your favourite sock construction method?
  
• How do you feel about dpns? Magic loop? Two circulars?
  
• Best sock wool you've ever knitted with?
  
• and of course, keep those Internet sock knitting resources coming so we can have a helpful sidebar/profile!

I'm pleased we have twelve members already! :-)
