i know, i know,,,,for the past 3 weekends i have wished these socks DONE!!!
welp, here they are - NOT done! but so close! i think~~that my problem is ~~i feel pressured to get these to my co-worker so she can mail them. any other pair & i wouldn't have this issue, also, i sooooo want them to be perfect. the biggest issue is: da da da da -- this woman has no idea what size her cousin wears --- somewhere around a 10 (she thinks) and 
she has "kinda chunky ankles"! Good Lord, what was i thinking when i agreed to make these!!! i'm really hoping the stretchyness of the rib & the pulling in of the pattern will complement each other - making them fit (at least) nicely. oh, and Lornas Laces is very pleasing to work with (some pooling), but the easy-care of the yarn is a big + + since i'm not sure how the person will feel about hand washing socks! i do realize not everyone has my obsessive nature :)
