So what happens when you start knitting just one thing on 1/1/08? Say of instance an obsessive sock knitter decided to knit baby socks. And this obsessive sock knitter knit nothing but baby socks for 20 days straight? If she worked 60 hours a week and squeezed in knitting around that schedule how many pair of baby socks do you think she's be able to finish to mail off to Afghans for Afghans? Take a guess. Winner will be drawn on Friday 1/25/08 at 12 est.

Well, I'm guessing 50 because they are tiny and probably quick and addictive to knit. :)
I'm going to guess 36. Good for you!
I'm going to guess 40.
I'm going with 30! Baby socks are so fun to knit.
I'm going to guess 25. Even though they're tiny, 60 hours a week is a big chunk of time. Baby socks are fun though.
I'll guess 16 pairs. They sure are cute!
10 - good job, too
Well, somebody already has my two first answers so I'll go with 28.
fun contest!! i'm going to guess 64 pairs :)
26 pairs is my guess, i love knitting baby socks too.
Oh my gosh woman! I'm guessing 12 pairs.
Regardless whether I win or not, you have the trophy for knitter of the year. :)
I know there are more pairs than one can see and my other guesses were guessed already... so I will go with 15 pairs of socks. Nice job! I too love knitting kid sized socks!
I know you can crank out these baby socks quickly. I'll guess 21 pairs.
I'll guess 36 -- sure looks like a full bag of socks there!
And I posted about your contest to WiKnit
I'll guess 23. Lots of happy little feet!
I'll guess 29 pairs because no one else has put that number in yet! Good work!
I'm going to say 22 pairs (but only because someone else already guessed 21!)
I'll go with 44 pair. A lot I know, but I'm an obsessive and so I'm figuring you can do it.
21 is my lucky number, so that's my guess.
Good for you, however many there are!
I am thinking maybe 24 pairs - and what fun for a great cause :)
I'll try 39.
I'm feeling lucky - so I'll try 37.
I'll guess 34. :)
If more than one person can guess the same number, I'll go with 29. If not, it looks like 31 is still free to I'll go with that.
You didn't say whether the person with the correct guess won, and if so, how you would resolve ties.
42.
23 pairs! I figure one pair a day with a few extras thrown in!
41 pairs. They are so cute and tiny! Thanks for the contest!
: )
lots of pairs ;oP
i would guess 27 pairs!
It looks like my lucky number has been guessed already, but I have to stick with it anyway since it sounds like a reasonable answer: 24 pairs of baby socks.
15 pairs - 30 socks - they are too cute!
I'm guess 17 pairs because 17's my significant number. :)
I'm guessing 19 pairs. way cute!
Being a compulsive knitter myself, I figure 2 pair per night since they're tiny, plus a few more.
I'll try 43 since it's not taken yet
18 pairs? Great job no matter now many you did!
Well, I'm going to guess 42 pair.
Great job! So many guesses already, so I'll go with 33 pairs, as it hasn't be taken yet.
I'm thinking 38. just seems like a nice round number.
Ooo, fun contest. Okay, I'm guessing 53 pairs of socks. What a great idea! Do you use a special pattern, or do you just "wing-it"? That's such a great idea for left-over sock yarn.
My guess is 28 pairs. I now have an urge to knit little socks too! Very sweet.
I'll guess 36 pair. What a cute contest.
I'll say......43 pair
23 pairs. Random number that came into my head. Also, I thought the dishcloth swap thing was cool, too bad I heard about it AFTER registration closed. I only started knitting them recently, anyway. I'm currently test knitting a pattern, and that's fun. Baby socks must be kind of like dishcloths: instant gratification, and a weird feeling of nesting-ness. And babies don't even like me, and I'm terrible at anything homey-related. Go figure.
19 pairs
31 pairs:)
12 pairs is my guess. They are oh so cute!
I'm going with 13.
So. Tiny!
I am guessing 37.
57 socks total.
How sweet to think of all those baby toes all toasty warm! What a great thing you are doing.
What a great thing to do!
I'll guess 22 pairs.
I'm gonna go with 28.
hmmm, I'm going to guess-21?
My guess is 27.
I think it's probably about 9 pair. yes, that is my guess. 60hr week, Wow! they are just so durn cute!
Hugs, DJ in SW MI, USA
46 pairs.
Diane, check my blog for an award.
I will guess 33 pair! Aren't your hands aching? Great thing you're doing.
I guess 29 pair. Thanks for helping to warm some sweet little footsies!
Goodness I think most of the numbers have shown up at least twice!
Hmm, well my b-day is 3/31 and I'll be 27. My sweeties is 4/20 & he'll be 36. I think most of those numbers are taken, soo I'll just go with...13 because it is a fun number.
Btw, I haven't learned to knit on needles, yet. I loom knit, hairpin lace, and Tunisian crochet.
I guess 8 pair.
