I turned the heel on the first Manly Sock and am about halfway through the gusset. In a fit of what I know now was misguided pro-activism, I decided to have him try it on. It looked to me like it was too big in the heel. I think he saw the crazed look in my eye, and he hurried to assure me that it was “fine”. Ugh, I hate that adjective. I wondered out loud if I should rip it back, and he nixed that idea. Again with the “fine”. So I’m going to press on. I know that they will get worn, if only around the house. But knowing that it’s not entirely right (I’m trying to be positive here, when what I really want to say is that it’s wrong, wrong, WRONG!) is really killing my mojo to get it done. And then I’ll have a second ill-fitting sock to knit. Sigh.
