Thanks for the fuzzy pictures!
I know what you all are thinking. “I wish Gail would post some pictures of her Drunken Bees socks. I hope they are fuzzy, and almost show her underwear!”
Well, you are in LUCK!
(In the above picture (which Barb took for me - thanks Barb!), you can see my car, part of the moose sweatshirt I’m wearing, the fact that I badly need a pedicure, and far more pudgy leg than most folks would like to see. Oh, and the sock. Sort of. My cell phone picture taking capability is low, and god forbid I carry around a camera.)
In any case, you can see that I’m on the foot. I’ve decided that I lack the brain power to keep up the partial cable chart down the sides of the foot, so I’m doing 1×1 rib, with the main cable panel down the center.
(In this picture, you can see Barb’s shawl, my pudgy toes, and some brickwork.)
If I reknit this this pattern, I think I would use size 1s, as the pattern calls for. The 0s are making a pretty dense fabric, and are a smidge tight on the legs. I like how the foot is fitting though.

September 15th, 2007 at 3:48 pmGail, I read in one of my newish sock books that some of the ladies are using a larger size needle on the leg and then switching to a smaller one for the foot…which pretty much fixes what you say you like and dislike about using the 0’s only.
