There will always be evil in the world. And where there is evil, there will always be good men and women to stand up to it. Those men and women will always need socks. However, 14 inches of jet black 2 x 2 ribbing can get a bit tedious. When it does, I kind of need something to remind me why I do what I do. These songs have been a great help to keep me going. They are all country music songs, and even if you don't like country music, you at least have to listen to American Soldier, by Toby Keith. If anyone can point me to a better soldier song, I'd sure love to hear it.

Yep. That ribbing is a bear. That's why i knit a leisure sock or some other sock for me at the same time and switch back and forth.
My yarns arrived yesterday, thankies!! ;)
I actually have 6 pairs of socks OTN at this moment, plus half a dishcloth, two scarves, and a prayer shawl. Ok, three scarves, but one is done except for binding off and weaving in the ends. Even with taking breaks from it, 14" of ribbing can be a bit tedious.
