Rock Star at the speed of lightning! You're good. ; )

I can offer nothing in regard to the sock except for logic and logic says you should be good. I like Plan B, though, too. ; ) Can't wait for pics.

It looks like you are in good shape to complete the pair with enough yarn. but if not it also sounds like you have a good back up plan. I can't wait to see the finished sock.

I think you'll be fine and you have a back up if not....but think positive and hope for good knitting karma :)

I'm glad you have the back up plan, but you might just make it. I think we need to have a chat with the people at the Fold. We need more yarn!

And sorry, but what is with the "I finished a sock!" and "Aren't I all fast and everything!" and NO FLIPPING PICTURE! They had better be good on Monday. I mean it. ;)

Har Har! Ditto Teresa! We're dying out here in sockland, Cara! :P

I agree with the others, it sounds like you have enough and if you do run out, it will be very minimal and you'll finish with the koigu.

So.... go now go!

having done a zillion toe-ups, I concur that you should definitely have enough for sock two ... and if, for some ungodly reason you don't, the Koigu toe solution is a good one, so that you can differentiate between your left foot and your right! ;o)
it's a fabulous pattern, BTW ...

Several things could be happening.

A. You have plenty of yarn because the postage scale is "good enough for government work."

B. You are dangerously close but still OK.

C. You are going to run out. Good thing you've got a back up plan.

D. You are close but due to anxiety your gauge gets tighter and tighter as you get closer to the end magically giving you enough yarn, but your stripey goodness goes to hell.

I'm going to go with A.

I just weighed two skeins of STR on my kitchen scale and both are coming up 4.25 ounces. That is with the paper label on, but how much could that weigh?

I think you'll probably be fine. Do you have the paper work that came with the scale? It may have a margin of error listed. Regardless, you're weighing the same for both the finished and the extra. Therefore, you should have enough if you keep your gauge spot on.

Could it be that the weight given is in a higher humidity? sometimes thatmakes a difference. I predict that you will have enough to finish the 2nd sock with absolutely no problems...
I am sending good sock karma your way!! :)

I *think* you'll be fine, especially since you have a backup plan ... but then, I'm the sort of knitter who starts a sweater with about 200 yards less than the pattern called for, declaring that the last sweater I knit by that designer took much less yarn than called for. Can't wait to see a picture!

Since you have a back-up plan, you'll do just fine. Go for it, Miz Speedy.

Those are going to be a most fabulous pair of socks !

You're calling all sock mavens! Grrl, you ARE now a sock maven. You have figured it out perfectly. Can't wait for pictures!

I can't believe how fast you knit that sock! I'm knitting my 1st sock ever and I would probably be closer to finishing if I weren't scared of doing the heel and all that. I love the pattern you're using. I looked all over for a pattern I liked but forgot about that one- guess I'll have to use it for my next socks.
Don't worry about running out of yarn. You have a back up plan so just have fun.

You're a woman after my own heart. Regular sock knitting converted to an extreme sport. When you are done, having escaped with only 6 inches to spare you have to promise me that you will say "Whoa...DUDE, did you see how awesome close that was?"

I'm hoping that you're flying through the second sock with lots and lots (or a yard or so) extra yarn; ditto to the person who's already mentioned that postal scales are close enough for g'vt work and that sometimes what they say and what the yarn says is a wee bit different. Having koigu around for potential toes should be enough to keep it from being used...

Thank goodness I read your blog! I'm right behind you with my own pair of STR socks (in Carbon) and I'm also worried about having enough. I lovelovelove this yarn. I think I must have been the *other* crazy person at the Fold booth, having made sure that I'd get there early enough to get the Good Stuff. I did, too! I'm looking forward to seeing your finished pair (and I'll post a photo of mine, too).

You know, I hear that the faster you knit, the less likely you'll run out of yarn ;)

Or perhaps it just gets you over the cliffhanger more quickly :)
