An hour or so of tennis this evening should see these done. I'll save the finished object photos till they've had a soak and block.
Next up I need to figure out what I'm going to do with this:
The skein of STR medium weight in the Beryl colourway that Adam picked out. It's only 380 yards, which isn't a lot for a pair of men's socks. I'm thinking of something with a bit of texture that won't get lost in the colour shift. It'll have to be a fairly speedy knit as well, this skein needs to be completed socks, ready to go, in a little over three weeks.
Suggestions? I'm off to troll Ravelry for inspiration.

I've got a skein of MW Beryl earmarked for another pair of Inside-Out socks. I know it's a club pattern, but it wouldn't be hard to reverse-engineer something similar, especially if you're after house socks. I was surprised by the cushioning of the garter-stitch heels and toes, and the reversible rib/cable is good fun. Be wary of giant cable crosses, though, as some people found it impossible to get those loose enough to fit the sock over their heel.
