socked
Arrrgh – I can’t believe I’ve finished my first pair of socks!! *pauses and looks around* Umm.. now that I think about it, where did I put them?
They came out awesome. Perfect, size 8 fit! I’m so totally impressed with Charlene Schurch’s instructions on foot size, such that I’m asking all my family and friends what their shoe size is. My aunt explicitly told me not to bring her shoes for Christmas. :-)
I know Kitten deflated my belated pipe dreams of knitting up Christmas prezzies in time, but these socks took me about a day each. With a little more relaxed knitting, I could crank out a pair in a couple of days. I know that sounds overly ambitious, but hell, I didn’t even use markers for the short row heel on the second sock. I thought about it, but realized all that slipping them on and off would just slow me down.
I’m itching to start another pair, but have too many other projects to finish, including the cable scarf and the kitty pi.
