I am now among the fallen. They are a nice fit, but they were really cold when I put them on. I guess they sat in the mailbox for an hour or so. My feet are warm now, but it was cold going outside to photograph the socks. I guess revenge is a dish best served cold. They are a little darker than in the picture, but I love how they look black or blue in different light.
Killed by Vautrey77 on October 12 at 2:45 PM. I’m not entirely sure whether the yarn came from Sunni or not, but Yarn: Jo Sharp DK Wool. 100% wool.
She also sent me a nice California magnet, which is now on my fridge with a few other magnets that I have gotten with yarn purchases. How’d she know I needed a magnet? Lucky Vautrey, the yarn your next victim has will be really nice to work with and your assassin is TurtleKnits. Go get your next victim, I’m rooting for you.
I’m really happy that I got to knit two pairs of socks.
Here’s a little statistical information for you all.

All hail another brave fallen commerade of the Sock Wars! Those socks look like a lovely way to go.
Sheri at the Loopy Ewe received her socks this morning according the tracking code, so she is also dead. I guess Vautry will be knitting for Agent S with Sheri’s lovely yarn. Like you, I am so sorry I will miss the pleasure of the Schaefer!

I’m glad you liked the Sock Wars segment, but now I can get back to my regularly scheduled knitting.
