Sunday Socks Part 2

yah the Jaywalkers. I am so wicked weak.... a total lemming. The love of last socks in last yarn had me perusing other patterns in KOTR but I had promised a blog reader that I would try the Lorna's in this pattern. Liking it! I am knitting the largest size cause wouldn't you know it~ my feet are 9.5" round! Who knew? I certainly didn't until I measured for Sockapaloooza questionaire. I have pulled them on over my ankles and they seem a bit loose but considering I have been knitting ribby type of socks 8" max round what can I expect? I haven't even bothered gauging cause we are being gauge challenged but I am using 2.25mm needles and my 2mms are in use on a shhhhhhhhhh secret project. Yes I spend hours a day knitting something behind your backs. I spend hours a day knitting so I have something to blog about and then sneak in another few hours of behind back stuff. But being gauge challenged I have no clue if I am getting what I am supposed to be getting so I might have to rip. Natch Too big I might felt/too small well knitting is stretchy.... I am so not purchasing smaller needles and my biggers are on the Jays. ummmm I cast them on back to back on the same day. The socks stuck where you see em the other project 1/4ish done. Maybe this weekend I will be done?
