Sockintine Sock Swap!

SJ, I’m glad you and your socks are getting along again!! :roflhard:

Oh no… thats terrible…

Sometimes you just have to sit them in the corner and let them think about how they are behaveing… a little timeout never hurt… :teehee:

I’m glad you made up and are doing well again… its hard when your not on speaking terms with your knitting…

Good Luck… :muah:

I totally agree. When I get frustrated with projects, I just set them down for a few days and walk away. I really don’t want to start getting so frustrated with a project that I would start to not like knitting.

But then I also suffer from carpal tunnel, so I often have to set down projects even when I don’t want to. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hey guys…are socks supposed to be blocked? :shrug:

Also, for those of you making anklette socks, are you threading a couple threads of elastic through the cuff?

Thanks in advance! :muah:

an e-card, that’s a great idea!

Here are my partner’s socks so far. I’m working on the hard part now - the gussets. :help:

Wow Shandeh! :inlove: Those are BEAUTIFUL!! :heart:

Thank you! :muah:

I must be a freak…I love the gussets!! :woot:

As for blocking socks, I wouldn’t worry about it. I’ve never blocked any of mine and they look perfectly fine. :shrug:

Wow, everyone’s socks look fantastic and I can’t believe people are already receiving socks!!!
I thought we were all supposed to have them sent to receive by V-day?
Did I miss some other deadline?? :oops:

No allergra, some people are just sending theirs early. I’m not done yet, and won’t be sending mine til just before Valentine’s day. :slight_smile:

Me too! I’ll be lucky if I finish mine in time. :teehee:

All is well, Allegra! :hug: :heart:

PHEW!!! :yay:

Awesome! (I created a blogger page for it here. So, if you wanted to watch that, I’ll be kept up to date with the status of the knit night.)

socksforfriskums -> That’s such an adorable kitty! :heart: :heart:
I’m being taunted! :happydance: :muah: :happydance:

Angelia -> I’m normally not a ruffly kind of girl myself, but it just felt right when I was making them. I’d wear them…if they weren’t too big for me. :teehee:

Everyone else -> Thanks for the compliments. :hug:

What? Those socks Kelly knit aren’t for me? huh. Wait, what? huh? Nooooooooooooooo! :waah: but, but, but everyone’s socks are for me!

:teehee:

Really, everyone’s socks look so fabulous. Babydill, those socks are mine, right?

Actually, I was really excited because I got a message from my sock pal today! It says that s/he reads my blog and brings my socks to work with them and everyone in his/her workroom knows the socks are for me!! I feel so :hug:

Oh, and Dear Partner, unlike the ArtYarns ultramerino, the Fleece Artist is behaving itself and knitting up in some nice baby cables. :cheering:

[size=1]No one thinks its funny that I knit fluffy pink horrible fake-o obnoxiousocks for Diwwy??[/size] :pout:

When I first saw them, I kept thinking… "but, I thought Dilly didn’t want pink in her socks. :?? "

But then I figured I was just remembering it wrong. :shrug:

I kinda liked them though. :teehee:

Nope… you remembered it right. I think we had the conversation in Angelia’s blog when the idea for the swap first came up.
