celticdragonfly: (Sock Wars)
I have now done 38 pairs of socks.

In Sock Wars, my victim's victim is a deserter - apparently BristolKnitter sent her socks, but even though she answered emails at the start of the game, she's not answering now. Gah. But her victim, Brianne, was answering, and certainly she deserved socks. So after a long wait to make sure I wasn't unfairly cutting the deserter off, I dug out more stash and made socks for her.

They did have to turn out two-colored. I know YarnMonkey says you can do a pair of these with a single 50 gram ball. I want to know what she’s been smoking. I had a ball and a third, and nope. But hey, War Is Hell, especially for those of us with big feet. I did work hard to make them symmetrically two-colored. The scalloped cuff edging isn’t strictly according to the SoD pattern, but I thought it’d help balance things.

They were mailed off yesterday - and [livejournal.com profile] selenite encouraged me to go ahead and get overnight mail, so she'll be getting them today. Bwahahaha.

She was in the same position - the next "alive" person down from her is a deserter who got socks and now has not been heard from since. Gah. So she was going to make socks for the next one, Kraftykat, from scratch. Well, I found out today she has the yarn *on order* ... um. I sent her an email suggesting that perhaps she should just tell me the next person's color preferences?
