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…
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.
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!
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! Those are BEAUTIFUL!!
Thank you!
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.
Me too! I’ll be lucky if I finish mine in time. :teehee:
All is well, Allegra!
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!
I’m being taunted! :happydance: :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.
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
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.
