Ann at Mason-Dixon Knitting explains the knitalong-
"So. Anybody who’d like to finish something for once, who’d like to start a knitalong already halfway home free, this knitalong is for you. Three possibilities:
Option 1: Poke around to see if you can find a bogged-down sock project, and dig it out.
Option 2: If you don’t have such a project, feel free to dive in with a fresh skein of sock yarn (NOBODY lacks that), and go hunting for a sock pattern that will amuse you. I’m really curious what patterns everybody selects, so I’ll cook up a thread over on the Mason-Dixon Knitters forum on Ravelry.
Option 3: I also encourage anybody who has never made socks to jump in. So many cool things about knitting a sock. Let’s start on Monday, May 16. We’ll finish by the end of May." - See more at:

So I fall into category 3- never been there- loved to try. So this Saturday I'm off to find sock yarn (I'm not one of those who have sock yarn) and mini-small needles- the smallest I've used and I'll venture forth and try something new, socks!
Some sock patterns I'm purusing-
