WOOT.

I HAVE A SOCK.

I kind of screwed up on the toe, but it fits well enough that I'm not worried. It only looks funny if you look really closely. And I know what I messed up so I can get it right next time.

Also: I have a week to knit another sock. Yeeep.

At last! Peg-leg Pete the Pirate will not freeze this winter! :D

Seriously, congrats. You have more to show than I do. Bleah.

Well, get on it! You still have time, you could totally make it.

Go go go!

JESSICA PEARSON YOU ROCK MY SOCKS OFF.

I TRIED TO COME UP WITH A CLEVER WAY TO INCORPORATE KNITTING INTO THAT BUT EVERYTHING I THOUGHT OF JUST SOUNDED WEIRD.

Now you're halfway through a possibly entertaining sock puppet show.

That is sooo cute! I love that sock.

I hear that socks are fairly hard and take a long time to make... True o falso?

[syntheticjesso.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Hard? Not really. Long time to make? Well, I did this one in 8 days, and from the heel flap down was all done on Saturday and Sunday, so not really if you buckle down and do it.

Some socks, though, are harder. I've heard that Argyle socks are pretty intricate and time-consuming, and therefore are prized as gifts.

Nice work! :D

Thank you! I'm quite proud of it. I pulled it on and went "OMG I HAVE A SOCK".

And then my cats gave me a disdainful look.

Oh kitties. They are sad you made it into a sock, instead of leaving it as a ball of yarn for them to play with.
