She likes them!
My sockpal got her package and she loves her socks! Boy, I breathed a little sigh of relief when she said they fit well - it's not easy making something form fitting for someone who isn't available to try them on!
It was so fun to read her blog entry about getting her package. My sockpal last year didn't have a blog so this is a new experience for me. It was kind of strange to see the things that I made and packed up in someone else's house, but strange in a fun way.
Here are the completed socks on happy feet, although Judy said she had to take them off soon afterward because they were too warm.

I also got an anonymous comment the other day from my other sockpal that my socks were on their way from Canada - I'm so excited. I'm inspired by Judy's care in photographing her package - I'm going to try to remember to do the same (although I will likely have a couple of helpers with the opening, which always makes things more complicated!)
The blanket for my upcoming neice is about halfway finished, but I need to work out one small detail before I can continue. I'm almost finished with clue 1 for the Mystery Stole, and I started a new pair of socks (for the Hubby this time). No photos, since my only time to do so would be at night and flash photos generally stink (at least when I take them!)

Your sockpal experiences sound so fun, you've got me thinking about doing a sockpal swap at some point...
I am so happy to hear your package arrived safe and sound.
Enjoy and happy knitting!
