They look like a perfect fit, too. Has he rather eloooooonnnngated feet, or is it just the angle?

[crankyisgood]

They're pretty long. He's 6'2" and has size 12.5 feet (I think. I can never remember. He is too particular for me to try to buy him shoes anyway).

[vellumblue]

I'm impressed that you'd make socks for someone with feet that long. That's a pretty long stretch of nothingness for a while, except the pretty color changes of course.

[crankyisgood]

way faster than a sweater for the man.

Oooh. Deutschland! Ja!

Love love the socks!

[vellumblue]

Because of your icon, every time you write I imagine Rosie speaking the comment. This one just about made me fall off the chair.

[lexophile]

She absolutely would say that, in a Heidi Klum voice/accent, then eat the socks.

[lexophile]

also- how have you not commented on Little Chloe in my journal????????????

[vellumblue]

Did you do Alison's cut and rejoin thing to get the heels a perfect one color, or did you just get really lucky?

[crankyisgood]

cut and rejoin?ELW@!@#?L_@#)* no way. I did ask Seth if he was okay with an imperfect color repeat, though, and he didn't mind. I will have to cut and weave for the wristwarmers, though.

[vellumblue]

well, it looks really good, so those that choose to cut and rejoin are frickin insane. But we knew that already.

[crankyisgood]

and we admire them for it. until they rip out everything for the 3rd or 4th or 10th time...

[crankyisgood]

thanks! here's to self-striping yarn!

[anonymous]

It looks like the stripes are pretty evenly matched, though, no? You're such a good gf.

Yeah, I tried to be careful to start at the same spot in the second ball of yarn, but it was mainly thanks to the yarn manufacturer that they match so well. :)
