SOCKS!!

I *just* finished these a short while ago. I don't think i got the maths perfect this time around, but--they fit, and they are finished, and they are finally off my needles! Just a simple ankle sock in simple ribbing, using simple sock yarn--Red Heart Heart & Sole ("mellow stripes" colorway).

They are bright, happy colors, though Red Heart does need to work on their quality control a bit--see that section on my left foot, where there's some white stripes going on? those are supposed to be blue stripes. And yes, i know they aren't a perfect match; i didn't care about that so much, since i was making them for me, and they are only my second pair of socks, and I'm not fully 100% clear on the math of socks yet--I'm still making my heels and toes a bit too tight, and my ankles too loose. Math was never my strongest subject, but i tended to do better in applied math than abstract math even though as a leftie, I'm supposed to be abstract. I'll get there in the end.

Silvie is also coming along, but--no new pictures of him, again because he is a twin of the front half of the bag. I'm up to the top of his cheeks though. Hm, what else is going on....Eh, not too much--day off today, and I've pretty much just spent it sitting at my computer, listening to music on Pandora, reading posts on Ravelry and struggling with my socks. Note to self: size 0 needles are not your friend. Stick with the size 1s that are your friend.
