I showed off my new socks, errrrr, exactly ONE new sock, to my hub. He asked, "Do you have another one to go with it?" And I replied, "Of course, only it's not quite finished." He snorted that snort that meant, "In your mind you have a second sock..." At which point I rushed to the next room and returned with sock #2 complete EXCEPT for the bind off. Now, he doesn't have any idea how much time a bind off takes, so he was convinced I, indeed, had a second sock VERY close to being finished.
And I got to show those off in yesterday's blog, didn't I!!
So why did I take pictures earlier today that look like this?

The top one is inside out. |
Hmmm. We all know what THAT means. (I stretched the truth, a bit...) Ends. Weaving in... I'm "almost" finished.
I sat down with the Sunday golf and basketball on TV and two hours later... YES, I was horrified that each sock took an hour, I had FINISHED socks.
I put them on.
And I took pictures:

The top one is inside out. And, truly, the bottom sock is "end-free", too! |
