World's ugliest socks...

I started working on my first pair of Jaywalkers on the plane during my recent trip. I was using Opal Zebra yarn; someone else in blogland had used this yarn for Jaywalkers, and they looked awesome - the black stripes zigged and zagged back and forth. I started off casting on 90 stitches so it would accomodate my big feet. I got a few inches done, and then in the hotel, I tried them on - they were way too wide. So I frogged it, and started over casting on fewer stitches. The result wasn't pretty. Unfortunately, the stripes "pooled" into one big stripe spiralling down the sock, with the odd fleck of black here and there. Hard to imagine something black and white that could look worse. In other news, I am quitting my job here as of the end of December, and heading to Ontario in the New Year. [Man, for someone who hates moving, I sure find myself doing it alot.] We are heading for the big city - Toronto. I am going to miss the view...
