Default Sock embroidery

Hi all:

I'm hoping to embroider a simple pattern on a pair of socks as a gift
(just a pair of letters, basically). It doesn't need to be done by
Christmas, but I'd like to finish it within the coming week.

Two questions:

1) Is it realistic to accomplish this myself given that I've never done
anything like this whatsoever? And if so -- how might I do it?

2) If not, is it realistic for anyone here to do it for me within the next
few days (for a reasonable fee, of course)?

Thanks!
Mark


Swiss darning is the easiest way to do what you are want Mark. Full
information on "how to" is given at:
http://www.studioknits.com/bookpage55.htm and the diagrams are very clear.

Good luck with completing your project.
Bernadette
