I finally have a picture! And the swap sock is done, too.

I decided to try and make this sock (which I've been calling Candy sock, because the colors remind me of some half-remembered kind of candy) with a heel flap instead of a short-row heel, so I'm following the instructions in Sensational Knitted Socks even though I can't get my head around how this is all going to work - I always was bad at spatial things. I'm trying to just have faith and do it.

I've also been off work since partway through Tuesday - I got sick, AGAIN, and have a disgusting hacking cough and no voice. Fun. But I should have seen it coming - my body pretty reliably gets sick when I'm overloaded and overwhelmed, and forces me to rest. So I am!
