I would be gloating...

...about just how damn clever I am having executed my magic-toe-up heel-flap-adorned socky masterpiece. I would be looking forward to completing the pair for stashing in the drawer for colder days when I could take them out and think just how damn clever I am:if I hadn't overlooked the fundamental issue of sizing. To the present pile for these then, with little hope that the recipient will be a sock knitter who can marvel at just how damn clever the construction is. Good job that they are purty too! Off to channel some Cat B for the second magic toe and remind myself how damn clever I am :o)

Ah, the tragedy of misjudging one's own feet... I've done it myself more than once.

Very damned clever construction, though!

I think they might fit me (hee hee).
Charity said…
Oh, groan! At least this is a problem easily fixed, and just think of all that extra practice you're getting... :o)

Oh noes!!! They are so lovely, and so clever!

They are very clever and pretty even if they are destined for some other person's feet.

Oops - I'm sure they'll find a very good home though!

This is a very 'amanda' thing to do! :D
Bells said…
oh yeah, been there, not exactly there but rather there.

Lovely colour though!

Very clever indeed!
Marianne said…
Heh, you completely crack me up.
Sitting here wishing I had extraordinarily long toes :^) They are gorgeous, beautiful, and no one, NO ONE gets to take your clever away :^)
oh I could cry for you, but they look so beautiful.

You are indeed very clever to have knitted such a gorgeous socks. AAww, oh well, all you need to do now is to grow your feet long. ;D
Judging the sock size is very difficult I think. I often make them too short...
Kai said…
:D I'm sorry, this made me giggle.

I'll have to put up a big notice when I finally get round to the magic cast on toe up with cat's instructions etc...
Leonie said…
Oh, such a shame. Here's wishing for a suitably impressed present recipient for you!
Rachel said…
Oh man--that indeed is tragic. But I do think you can still brag about the construction!
DrK said…
hehe, i shouldnt laugh really because i am struggling myself with the whole toe up thing, but that is kind of funny....
