Socks

So I made finished socks!
FINALLY!
The one on the left is the new one.
I don't know what the stripe is-but it makes it easier to identify it!
=)


I got this pattern out of Knitting for Dummies.
I really liked it.
By that I mean it was hard.
You were there.
You know.


So I want to make more socks.
This time I want them to be like real-life socks.
That means smaller needles.
SCARY!


It also means smaller yarn.
And I made it green.
I mean I didn't.
Someone else with a cool job and more skills did.
I just bought the green.


Can you tell I was listening to John Green while writing this?
Sorry I don't know things like gauges.
I just know the needles are scary and the yarn is pretty.
I can do this.
Knitting!

  1. Awesome. Phabs and I are working on socks from that pattern right now! We will start the heel a week from Wednesday, so we can do that part together!

  2. I am afraid, but the completed socks are so beautiful! They inspire me.
