Sock Spurt

First, I want to say how encouraging it is that more than 80% of you think I will deliver before my due date - I can only hope that you're right. The uterus is playing dumb and won't give up a word on the subject.

I've found some knitting energy of late after all. I think having my handspun sock yarn waiting gave me the spur I needed to complete my Experimental Dye Job socks:

Very simple 72st, picot cuff, shortrow heel on Size 0's. Yarn is superwash something or other that I picked up for the Dye-O-Rama swap, and the dye job was experimental in that I just slapped the hank in a roasting pan and randomly splashed on dye as I do with roving - i.e. not painting on sections, etc. It surprised me, as it looked like utter garbage in the hank and wound up, but I ended up really liking how it knit up. Very autumnal colors, and I think these are destined to be popped in the mail to someone I know who badly needs a pair of handknit socks.

And my reward for finsihing:
The Gestures 2-ply thatI spoke of last post, now knit up in sock form. I am smitten. I only have the mental capacity for simple stockinette right now, and this stuff is perfect for that. 60 stitches on size 1s, around and around as I space out. I love the colors in here.
