sock update

I have caught the knitting bug again. I have promised myself that I will not obsess about it this time. I will not get angry (at gauge deficiencies, oddly picked up stitches), I will choose simpler projects that I am able to complete and they will not compete with the book I am writing or take time away from it.
All these socks need in order to be called finished is for me to take the time to kitchener stitch the toes closed. I hesitate... because kitchener is supposed to be difficult. But, i will get it done.
The only thing I want to knit is socks.
These were knit on #3 needles using yarn I dyed years ago, next pair will be toe up on size 2 needles. The next pair will also be a simple pair because I have never knit a toe up pair.
But do you see the skien of yarn under the pair I am talking about? White... colorless, boring, can it even be called yarn?
