The joy of socks

Remember back during March Madness, when I started a new adventure in knitting? Fancy yarn on multiple oversized toothpicks double point needles?

Behold!




Not just one, mind you, but a full and complete pair.

Note that, with a little planning, the stripes even lined up! You have no idea how this pleases my OCD soul.

I SAW those lined up stripes. "What a knitter! what a woman!" I said...

Can't think of a better reason to buy a new pair of shoes.

My family cannot understand why I would spend the time and effort to knit a pair of socks when I could buy a perfectly acceptable pair at the store. Philistines!

Well done, and the lining up of the stripes is quite impressive. I love the self-striping yarn so much.

Thanks, folks!

Benedict Seraphim: I prefer to assume that you were voicing approval for each sock separately. (^_^)
