Computer issues and socks

These socks I cast on simply due to my computer issues. Every couple of minutes I would have to again trouble shoot to get internet connection. Which took time. Now, since I had no interest in sitting and twiddling my thumbs during that time, I cast on for socks. Without the computer issues, I never would have right now.

I needed something that had quick short rows to knit so that I could also press the appropriate buttons without interruptions. I have been working on these less than a week now, only at my computer, and look how far they have come! I am seriously liking the pattern and the color combo seems very manly. As it should. Since they are FOR the person who works on my computer.

One would think he would have come here to vote for his socks then skew the vote by making my internet connection worse. But in true womanly fashion, my computer works fine when he is here or when I am on the phone with the cable company. So no one really knows why it chooses to work sometimes and other times not so much.

Riwa has voted for the socks. Currently my internet connection is working, so they probably won’t get far. If it goes out again though……..they knit up super fast!
