A small request

On October 26th I will have had my deviantART gallery for one year. I currently have 964 pageviews. I'd really like to have 1000 on the 26th. So if you could stop by and pimp my gallery to friends I'd really appreciate it.

Fits thighs up to...

So I'm cruising around LJ to avoid making a call that I need to make but really don't want to deal with and I come across a reference to Sock Dreams. Now I'm not that much for socks, at least not like I am for shoes and boots, but the indication was that funky (as in looks, not smells wiseguy) socks could be found there so I went looking.

OMG, tons of thigh high and over knee socks in nifty patterns and colors. They have toe socks and tabi, and animal print toe socks! *glee*

I find a likely pair of thigh highs, advertised as fitting feet sized 8-13 and stretchy for larger thighs. Cool. Then I read the sizing info:

"36 inches from the heels to the tops with good two way stretch. medium to larger feet sized 8-13 thighs up to at least 24 inches, remember, the wider your thighs the less high these will go, but you can always cuff them or slouch them. "

...

My calves are 24 inches.

*pout*

So morganalilith, I remember you mentioning you knit socks. Have any handy advice for a new sock knitter? Guestimation help on ounces of whatever weight yarn to sock size?
