Half the pair done, and normally I'd wait to post until they both were, except that I'm so excited about how well the yardage worked out. See that little coil at the bottom, under the sole? That is the foot or two left from the skein. If you don't knit you will not maybe be as thrilled about this as a knitter would. Usually, you see, one either doesn't have enough in the skein or ends up with lots leftover; rarely does the Yardage Goddess smile and allow you exactly as much as you need for the project. (This sock, for example, used exactly one 135 yd. skein, so you can see how finely cut it was to have only a foot or two left.)
