make the socks a bit shorter and add the fingerloops to them from your tail poi Smile

Yeah, when they're fully stretched, make sure they're no longer than your arm (stops you hitting yourself in the face Wink). I'd say only use the fingerloops if you genuinely feel you need them. I never bothered attaching fingerloops to my socks, and now I actually don't like using them anymore. Smile
