Kitchen scale is how I did it, too. I'm doing my first pair like this and they are also taking ages. Feels like, anyway!

They look excellent. I really like the smooth rounding of the toes.

I knit a lot of washcloths when I started. Then hats. Now I'm trying my hand at socks. But I want the socks to be more like slipper-socks because I can't imagine knitting a pair that would be reasonable to wear with shoes.

Here is a pic of a breast cancer awareness washcloth that I made. I've named these nip-kins.

I'll be curious to know if you think this pattern might be first-timer-friendly. New acronym: FTF

I love the look of tight/small knit. And I'm currently lamenting that love on my own WIP.

That's a great color of yarn!

I love this! I think your friend will be so pleased.

Start at the beginning of summer to be done in time for winter!

It's beautiful, looks like it will be wonderfully cozy.
