Here are the boring blue socks. Well, the yarn color is nice (Elann's Peruvian Highland wool) but otherwise they are the usual 8-9" of K2P2 rib DH prefers. I'll have the second pair for you tomorrow. I debated knitting him a third pair but it was risky enough finishing up 2 pair in front of him without him noticing. I really want these to be his surprise Valentine's day gift.
