A spate of ‘sock clubs’

All these personal sock clubs (Rose Red et al) have got me thinking. I'm not a sock knitter but I could get the kids to go into the stash box and decide what I'm going to use next. That will give me a surprise when the time comes. "Here Mum knit something with this. It could be a single ball of KSH or 20 balls of Harmony. I'd never know what I was getting, just that I had bought it so it must be something I wanted.
