Stand up Comic?

I like to knit my socks at a firm gauge, for maximum durability, but perhaps this is going too far?


Then again, as socks they sure stand out.  They're for my brother-in-law as a Christmas present and he's a stand-up sort of guy.

These socks sort of look like they're ready to take a walk off on their own. Too bad they don't knit themselves...

  8. Those are hilarious! I don't think a pair of socks has ever made me choke on my tea before, but these certainly did. :-)
