So cute!

I am looking forward to the colder weather so I can wear your socks to bed.

I do need your address again. You should take your socks for surgery on Thursday. Your feet will be cold when you are waking up from the meds.

Oh, so smart.

Self striping socks always = win! They're adorable! And, wow, magic loop; that's some hardcore stuff. :D

Magic loop is super easy! I have a hard time with dpns because I always lose them when I lay my knitting down and come back. This isn't really a self-striping yarn, it is a variegated. Don't start knitting socks, you will never stop they are so addicting.

No worries, I'm too scared to start knitting socks. XD

[djmars]

No being scared!!!!!!!

I can't even imagine how difficult those must be to make. They look awesome!

They were actually really simple. That is the awesome thing about knitting. It looks complicated, but is usually pretty simple.
