I do love Noro socks. I know Noro isn't popular with all knitters, but I like the rustic quality of the yarn and TIm loves it too. This is the third pair of Noro socks I've made him. They soften up a lot with washing, too.

Komet Socks
These were a quick and easy knit. I'm going to keep them in the pile of future gifts, maybe for my sister's birthday in May.
So, for January, I finished the socks I made for Tim, plus I finished a pair of socks from my bag of sock picks - Komets.
I worked on the socks for Denise, but they're kind of on hold at the moment, since I'm not sure what to do with them. I took them in to work and had her try them on and she could just barely get them over her heel. Very frustrating. Not sure whether to frogg them and start over, make them into fingerless gloves, as she suggested, or continue on and hope they loosen up a little with blocking. :-(
I didn't get any work done on Laura's sweater (although I did cast on a sweater for myself - bad girl that I am).
My February goals are to finish at least 2 WIP from the basket, plus get to work on that damn sweater. Most likely I will cast on at least one more pair of socks as well.
