2nd Finished Pair for Summer of Socks 2007
... and just in time too. SOS2007 ends this Friday at midnight, I just made it. 
I started these on August 15 and finished tonight. This was my first time knitting two socks at a time on two circulars. I liked the method as there's no chance of suffering from the dreaded Second Sock Syndrome.
These socks are the Wild Kat pattern by Deby Lake knit in Tofutsies color 723 "Put Your Foot Down". I cast on with 3.0mm Addi's and finished with 2.5mm Knit Picks 24" circulars. I enjoyed the pattern and the yarn has grown on me.
Next up is Fetching and a scarf for my niece while we travel to Canada this weekend, and then the Second Wave Clapotis KAL starts on Sunday.
Two weekends from now the annual "We Interrupt This Marriage for Hockey" season begins.

Great finished socks! Enjoy your trip "up North"! :0)
Oh good. You're not finishing far ahead of me on the SOS front. I only finished 1-1/2 pairs of socks. Things just kept getting in the way.
Lovely socks. And I can't wait for the hockey season to start.
Socks look great! Think of all the knitting you'll be able to get done while your marriage is on hold! Ha!;)
I really need to make some Tofutsies socks.
I could really get into hockey if there was more of it on network (read: free) TV.
Love the pattern! Great job!
Wow, these socks look awesome - fantastic work!
Hockey season starts here tonight and I'm so NOT ready for it - but I suppose that'll change pretty quickly!
They look awesome! Great job!!
Hockey seriously starts in two weeks?!?! Where the heck did the time go?!?!

Pre-season hockey!!! It's only weeks away now!
(Lovely socks, by the way!)
Wow, they look great! knit two at a time? And still detailed? my, my my.
Fetchings are a great fun quick pattern.
Hi Barb.... I'm so far behind in reading blogs, but slowly catching up.
Your socks look great!
Hockey started here on October 3rd. The Avalanche look good this year, especially Stastny. I'm very ready for hockey!
Are you on Ravelry?
Have you succomb to some knitting accident? Maybe a needle jammed in your keyboard? Has the Clapotis sent you over the edge? :)~
Succomb?? Maybe I need to succumb to spell check!
