Thank you all for all of your compliments, I am blushing, seriously. You're showering of praise has punched through the fog of homework and the flu. Alan, they are lovely, I am so glad they fit.

I think they are comfy, although the only way Alan and my sizes correspond was in the length from knee to ankle. They yarn was very soft and squooshy though. The first sock took a few weeks of pretty constant knitting, but the second one took a while longer because school got in the way. I started them in the second week of december and finished them about a week/week and a half ago.

Nice work String! Is that from a homemade pattern, or one of the patterns posted in other threads here at XMTS? My wife is preparing to make me a pair of hose (I am already anticipating with baited breath...) and I really like the look of those, if it wasn't a "proprietary" pattern, that is.
