    I know I am a little late getting to this thread (side-effect from being in MI and not getting online much) but as for the quote above: YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!!

    BTW, as the first person to wear these mystique socks (at least the first person whom they somewhat fit) I must say, somewhere down the line Alan has done something I haven't, for these things are amazing.

    Hush, I made you a hat, and I tried the socks on waaay before you did, but my women's size 8 narrow feet and chicken legs didn't do them justice (they are stretchy enough to stay up though!)

    A single repeat of the cable patter I am using, oh and making the cuff looser was definately the right decision. I have major issues with shipping Items I'm not completely happy with and I didn't want to cut off circulation OR have the pretty cable too stretched out.

    NO NO NO cut off his circulation!!! I know where Alan lives, when he goes into the hospital to have the circulation in his legs fixed I can sneak into his house and steal these hose. My legs are smaller and better looking then his.
