Anyone who is interested in seeing a-third-done HoHI worn on my somewhat furry leg can check out the pictures on my flickr for some slightly blurry artificial-light (it was dark out this morning when I took the shots) pictures of the sock in progress. The colors are better (I swear) than they appear in the pictures. No, I haven't shaved my legs lately. Wanna make something of it?



Additional information for the truly obsessed

1. Improved and way better corrugated ribbing for top. Isn't this way better than plain red ribbing?
2. Lack of horribly obvious pattern fuck-ups. YAY!
3. I'm past the fat part of the leg. (I'm doing both socks at once.)
4. These are totally going to fucking rock when I have them done. I'm pretty chuffed, here.
5. I really think the proper heel treatment, the totally proper heel treatment, will be corrugated ribbing like at the cuffs.

Those are looking all *kinds* of awesome!!

You well deserve to be pretty chuffed. (And yeah the corrugated ribbing rocks.)

Cool!

A picture of your award and everything!

The socks look cool too. Impressive, as I could never do anything that detailed as far as pattern is concerned.

I think you'd be surprised. I have a chart and stuff, so that I know where it's going. It's not as bad as you might think. It *looks* terribly complicated, but it's really only knit, knit, knit, decrease, knit, knit, knit. There's not even any purling at the moment (though there was at the ribbing).

You should try it -- there's a learning curve, but then it's not so bad.

That was for my mom, who wanted to have a show-around picture of horse/award/daughter. She has friends who wanted to see.
