The Answer to the Cookie Question and More!
Answer:
Both 1 and 3. I smushed two on to the cookie sheets and ate the rest. I am a pig.
I finally finished the Fleece Artist socks. My kitchener stitch is the bomb. How satisfying is it to accomplish a new technique? And do it well? But really, I have tried it so many times and failed. The best instructions for this, ever, are the instructions from that Knit It! magazine. Believe me, I tried a gazillion different sources before this one nailed it for me. (I tried to show you my lurvly kitchener stitch but the picture did not come out very well. Another testament to my amazing photographic skills.)
So I sew in all the ends and show the socks to DN2. She says she loves them and can she have them? I unwillingly give them to her. So, today I want to show you guys the socks, right? Schlep my arse up to the bedrooms and find them stuck in the bottom of the sheets on her bed. Come down to the basement for the camera, no camera. Back up to DN1's bedroom to find camera. Back down to main floor to take pictures. Camera is full of pictures and must first download these total waste of time and battery use. Download pictures, go back upstairs to main floor where light is substantially better to take pictures. Digital photography made easy!
Oh, and for your blogging entertainment, I give you one of those pictures that are a "waste of time and battery use". I guess the idea behind the picture is the comparison between DN1's bra size to DN2's bra size. DN1 is a 34 AA and DN2 is a 36 C. DN1 is the tall, now thin, model-ly type and DN2 is the athletic, hockey playing, sporty type. Life is NOT fair.
In case you didn't notice, I am on a total sock trip. Addiction at its best. My latest obsession? Trekking and Regia Surf. Now to find the cheapest in Canada. Can you not hear the collective sighs of all my friends and relatives? "Holy Crap, she's knittin' socks now. Are none of our digits safe?"

Very nice socks! I'm on a sock kick, too. Especially since I can make 2 at a time now. Such fun!
nice socks, i wwould eated the dough too!
Love the color of those socks. I find socks are great when I just need some mindless knitting for a bit.
Nice socks! I'll have to invest and try them myself. Where did your GTA Knits web ring link go? My daily reading circuit had reached an abrupt end.
It's there. Just the title "GTA Knit Bloggers" is missing. I could never get it to work. After many, many attempts. But if you go to "next" it will go to the next blogger. Sorry, I am totally inept when it comes to this stuff.
