These were completed in plenty of time and received with great delight. Unfortunately, they are too long in the feet and too loose at the cast-on. Grrr. I'll have to do some fixing.

Speaking of the recent stash acquisition, I have started to use it. I gave DH the opportunity to pick which of the two balls of sock yarn he would like to have for his own knitting use. He misunderstood and picked out the ball that he would most like to have as socks for him, made by me. When I told him that I was actually offering him stash enhancement for his very own, he turned down the offer. (Seriously. Can someone even call themselves a knitter after doing that?) He said he didn't want to make me part with any of my yarn; I said I was happy to do it; he said no, that was okay...I just couldn't get him to take the stuff.

So I took the ball that he said he liked more and am using my new sock pattern to turn it into socks. One sock is already complete, and I'm on the leg (the last part) of the second one. I shouldn't have any problems finishing it in time for Sunday.
