No gentlemen here, and to appropriate a line from poppalina, no ladies either for that matter!
Latest socks for SSS - Gentleman's Fancy Socks, from Nancy Bush's Knitting Vintage Socks.
I'd been wary of starting these because they are written as men's socks, and knitted on 2mm needles, but a quick search on Ravelry found me the modifications I required.

I couldn't be happier with the results thus far.

The Knittery's 4ply Merino, Passionfruit, and my new Clover bamboo dpn's = perfect match.

Love love love this sock and this yarn!!
Gentleman's Fancy Socks?! Sounds fancy to me. It sounded even fancier when I initially read it as "German Fancy Socks"... think it's time to slip my glasses on. Gentleman or a German, they sound and look great to me.
see you, g xo
(Can't wait to see your car zine contribution... super excited about that, too.)
Fancy schmancy socks. Mmmm.
Ravelry is so cool. I want to marry it.
these socks are next up for me :) yours looks awesome!
Beautiful! The tiny needles have put me off making this one too, but looking at your sock is starting to sway me.
argghh! That's right! I forget to look on Ravelry for help with this same sort of issue! Thanks! The socks look great thus far.
