I'm really taking some risks here. A new pattern for the leg and the heel is "inside out" because I think I read somewhere it makes for a comfier sock. I thought I had socks memorized until I remembered that I didn't turn the heel and was trying to knit a square flap into a "round" sock. (insert tink here) Even so, it's amazing how quickly socks go when you aren't trying to do something gigantic in between. It takes great thought and consideration before beginning a gigantic project that feels destined to fail before it begins! We'll see what the weekend brings.

Oh, I routinely forget to turn the heel, and then wonder why my gussets look weird. Of course, I only knit socks when I'm away from home and doing other stuff (shopping, watching kid activities, driving), so I figure it's just distraction (yeah, right).
D'oh! I reguarly forget to pay attention to my knitting. Lessons... it's all lessons...
