Beautiful socks! I love your modifications. The yarn is so pretty.
Hmm...to entertain my kids, I had more kids. Now they play with each other and leave me to my knitting!

Those are great socks! Love the colors. I don't feel like a SAHM yet, my baby eats and sleeps and when awake is totally entertained by her activity mat. I still have moments to knit. I wonder how much longer that will last...

I agree, the striping on the feet is beautiful!! I really like the yarn.
I'm an at home mom and pretty much exhausted everyday and living very close to completely out of control.

Such lovely socks!
I can tell you what I do. Two things really help, coffee (I drink watered down joe to make it last or decaf if I'm out) and I take little Miss out a lot. To the zoo, to the Aquarium, the Museums, the library. Most places have a membership so you can go as many times as you'd like. And there are things to do at places you wouldn't expect-like Barnes and Noble Storytime, movies for Moms, etc.

Thank you for the comment on my blog. There are always ways of beautifying your stash. I am thinking about buying a huge glass bowl or vase, you know one of those tall ones and balling all of my leftovers and putting them in there. That way I can just look at them. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

oooh, purty socks!
"exhausted and crazy" is exactly why i can't do the stay-at-home thing full-time. i mean, i practically do already, but with a doctorate to finish, it keeps me focused.

Very nice I love those subtle colorways! They're great for showing off stitch patterns, but still add some knitting interest with their color changes.

Wow-I've been babysitting my nephew all week, and thingking "how in the hell do the stay-at-home moms do it???" Glad to have an actual mom confirm that 
The socks are gorgeous--a perfect marriage of pattern & color.

Those socks look wonderful--what a great pattern! I really like the yarn too--I'll have to give it a try. I prefer my socks yarns with the same tight twist that Koigu has, so this one sounds right up my alley!

Wow! Very pretty indeed. Your mods are great - I like a little lace in socks, but sometimes all the way around the back is too much.

Those are gorgeous. I love the way you can see the color pattern change from one needle size to the other. And the stockinette back is really lovely.

Lovely striping on the feet! I actually almost always like the contrast of my sock yarns between the patterned part and the stockinette part. They look noticeably different, but they are naturally complimentary. They set each other off nicely, like two coordinated printed fabrics.
All that to say: nice socks!
