Done! On Monday night, I finished knitting the socks. Tuesday, Simon wore the socks to work. Initially, he thought they felt a little rough (probably the bamboo?) but were fine after a while.
Details:
Basic stockinette socks
Trekking Pro Natura (75% superwash wool, 25% bamboo)
A little less than 1 skein
Color: brown multi
Needles: size 1 (2.25mm) dpns
As I've mentioned before, knitting with this yarn was ok, not great. Not nearly as soft and smooth as my other 100% wool sock yarns. After working with this for about a month, I adapted to the feel, but I'm not sure if I'd choose this wool/bamboo blend again. We hope it'll soften after washing.

I love these socks! I never had something made for me that took so much effort. Thank you!
