Here's a feet-in-socks shot:
Unfortunately, that last photo was a bit difficult to take... my feet are clunkier than the socks:
Yep, you see what you think you see. Pointy toed sock, and clunky, square toed foot. In fact, the purple sock is a left-foot-only sock. My big fat right ankle wouldn't fit in the purple sock, but the slightly wimpier left ankle just barely managed. Although I got my feet in, they're very tight. I need to e-mail my sock pal to see if I should expect them to stretch, or if I'll damage them trying to wear them. :( I really don't want to hurt my nifty socks... they're sooooo pretty, and must have taken *ages* to make!
Thank you sock pal! They're gorgeous, and I love them! I just wish I could wear them...
More good news tonight... my cousin Margie sent me a really nice card (to go along with her nice phone call), I ate a real dinner, *and* I washed all my dishes! I didn't get on my bike tonight... but I did ride an hour yesterday. (Although my scale still had nasty words for me this morning... even worse than usual!)
Well, I should e-mail my sock pal, and then head to bed. I made some proposal progress today, so I should get up bright and early and make even more progress tomorrow.

those are great socks! sorry they don't fit quite right. your feet look to be shaped a bit like mine. heh. :) they are gorgeous, though!
Could you try blocking them a little bigger? They are geogeous though :D
The problem is that the threads running across the back prevent them from stretching. Will blocking change this?
