Pink Thujas

This led to ...

This.

The first half of my Thuja socks are finished ... and wow, I do not think I have ever been this ridiculously happy with a grafted toe before. When the second sock is finished (this took me four days. FOUR DAYS. My goal is to finish the second sock by Saturday), I'll take lots of pictures ... and show off the grafted toes. The yarn information will also be posted. Bwahaha.

This project has been generating conversation with my coworkers. Most of the women think the colours are adorable, and the men are asking me to knit pink socks for the other men. Erm. Maybe if they buy the yarn and don't expect anything until next summer.

I also had a major revelation today concerning Julie's second sock project. It doesn't need to be insanely complicated. I could just do a simple sock in stockinette.

...

Also ... does anyone know how to correctly pronounce Thuja? Is it "thew-JA" or "thew-ya"?
