Back in October, I posted that I’d started knitting my very first pair of socks. This past weekend, at our monthly crafting get-together, I finished them:
They even mostly fit me! They’re a tiny bit tight, but I altered the pattern a tad to take into account the fact that I have tiny feet, and it turns out I needn’t have. I will make the next pair slightly larger, and at least an inch higher on the calves, but I’m very, very pleased with my first effort. Now I want a whole sock-drawer full of colourful hand knit socks, which should only take me about 5 years or so…
t! gets it. In the car on the way home from the crafting meet-up, I said,
“I finished my socks! Do you know what this means?”
“It means you get to start another pair of socks?”
“Exactly!”

Glad I stumbled on your blog. Consider me a like minded person in San Leandro, CA – as I do similar things here in a small city in Northern CA. I’m adding you as a link on my own blog (Aunt Magaidh’s House) and will enjoy checking on you from time to time. Aunt Magaidh/Kat
Yay, socks! Stripy stripy socks… perhaps one day I’ll do some.
Then I’ll have to buy bigger shoes to fit them in.
Those are great.
