Last night, I finished my Business Casual. The end date of the KAL is March 25th (Monday). I made it! It's been a very good KAL organized by Celtic Cast On. 115 knitters were in. Many knitted more than one pair. Go to this blog to see a parade of beautiful FOs! To this day, there are at least 60 pairs completed!
When I started the pattern, I thought it would be a tough pattern. So many crossed stitches :( Thankfully, someone on Ravelry posted an alternate method without a cable needle. So much easier!
Then, I struggled with the first sock. Started over three times!
And, I wanted to also knit the Saroyan and the due date was end of March as well! I don't know why I do it to myself: deadlines :)
Here is my finished pair:
Yarn: Tempted Hand Painted Sly Grrl.
Needles: US 2 / 3.0 mm (circular and DPNs).
Needles: US 2 / 3.0 mm (circular and DPNs).
Color: Dreamy.
Start to finish: February 2013 - March 2013.
For: Me.
Notes: No modification.
It is a great pattern! I really recommend it! They are very wearable and I think that they are awesome for both men and women.
Have a pleasant weekend!

60 pairs of socks! Woah! That makes me wonder how many socks are finished a month in the Ravelry universe as a whole! Your socks are very lovely, I'm sure they will serve you very well.
