Congrats to Mia Watts, who won the copy of Marrick’s Promise (Thrown to the Lions, Book 2) by Kim Dare!
Back in, um, February, I started a pair of socks for my SIL’s birthday in early March. *hopes no one notices what date it is now* Those socks are now complete!
“Socks on the floor! Yay!!!!” -Mayhem
“Is there a problem?” -Mayhem
Apparently you’ll just have to imagine what the rest of the socks look like…
“Socks! I love socks! Even if they aren’t stripey.” -Mayhem
I even started knitting a new pair of socks for myself.
“Stripey! Hurry up, Mom.” -Mayhem
Yes, dear…
Hopefully all the knitters were near padded surfaces when they collapsed from the shock of seeing knitting on the blog. 
*hopes no one notices what date it is now*
LOL! All I know is that it’s a bit warm in summer for socks like that.
Or were they meant for a certain friend from Down Under? 
I <3 the new striped ones. You think they will be ready before winter starts? *innocent smile*

I was going to say that Mayhem is a camera hog, but I think she just has a sock fetish.
Nice stripes!

Are those KNITTED socks?? I’m shocked and amazed! They look great.. I absolutely love the colored stripes on the new pair.. going to have to look up that yarn!
(BTW.. I’m totally joking with you- I don’t even want to think about how ‘old’ the pair of socks in my knitting bag are right now or when the last time I picked them up was)
*laughing so hard almost chokes*
YAH for finishing your SIL’s socks. They look gorgeous! Well, what I can see of them. It’s like your cats know…hide the socks so they can’t be removed
And the stripey socks look gorgeous!
Congrats Mia!

Awwww, it’s a sockfest
Oooo, nice! Both of them! And those stripes line up nicely.
I’m surprised Mayhem remembers what those things on the floor being photographed are… *ducking*

I had rather a large shock and then I remembered, Chris does knit! You should knit more so that Mayhem can show off your knitting in such a fashionable way!

I’m with Mayhem! Yay, socks!
haha! She is such a sweety!
Lovely socks (what I can see of them.):-) Margene’s right, you should knit more so Mayhem can show of your FO’s in the way only she can do!

Where in the world did you find catnip yarn?
My poor sister’s cat has been cut-off from catnip, it was making him have potty problems. Of course he was getting fresh catnip 4 or 5 times a day!

I’m so glad I had an early warning. But still, one pair done and another pair started? Awesome.

Since I can’t knit worth a frick, I bow down to you. My grandma tried several times to teach me, but I think she finally gave me up as a lost cause.
LOL You make me want to take up knitting Chris! The socks for your SIL are so beautiful and the new ones are too..
Great post!!
You enjoy May…

Beautiful blue socks! May certainly is delighted. Love the new stripes! We’ll have to see if you feel the need to match the second sock to the first.

Yay socks! I have finished socks on my blog, too! (But you already commented that on my post… hmm.)
And no padded surfaces were needed here this morning. I already collapsed yesterday when I saw the Rav update.

What is this knitting thing you speak of?
Those came out very nice (of what I could see). I think you need to make Mayhem a pair of stripey socks for her……At least a sock shaped blanket!

Wowee – you finished a pair of socks. No wonder May is excited.

Beautiful! Both the socks and May
I actually just finished one sock that I started in February too, so you’re doing better than I am! They’re just for me though, so no deadlines. Maybe the other one won’t take as long though…

Someone is oh, so happy! I love how a little bit of pink tongue is sticking out. Oh and the socks are a wonderful color of blue – my favorite.

I could make a joke about not knowing that you knit but that might be construed as a pot calling a kettle black. Or purple as the case might be.

I think you’re going to have to fight Mayhem for them. *grin*

Okay… and you gave me crap about my daughter’s cat, making sweet lurve to my sockyarn! That cat is darn near smoking a cigarette and getting ready to raid the fridge… you’re lucky those socks aren’t pregnant! (Or the cat… you know… I’m not really sure the socks are masculine, feminine or gender neutral…)
And I’ve actually used that exact color before to make fingerless mitts w/a ruffle. Purty. So purty. Someone has nice taste:-)
Knitting! OMG! Just as long as you don’t go off the deep end and start knitting socks for the cats…they’d probably like those as much as they like bibs.
