This is just getting ridiculous.  I started these socks nearly a month ago and have only just finished the instep.   But I’m on the home stretch now.  Perhaps the elves will finish them this week.   The yarn is 100% wool called Tarantella and produced by Elann     I started the pattern “Dirt”, and shortly realized that I was not following the pattern.   But rather after the ribbing, I worked the first 2 rows with p1,k1 around, then a knit row all around.  Then reversed this and did 2 rows of kl,pl and another knit all the way around.  So there are 6 rows to my pattern.     I continued the way I was going as I had no desire to rip out and start over again.  They will be a good, usable pair of socks
