First Socks


These are my first socks. There are ladders on the sides, holes in the gusset, and some sloppy stitches, but they look like socks. No extra toes or anything. Not bad for my first pair of socks and the first time I knitted in the round. I'm very proud of them.

Details:
Started- 12/30/07
Completed- 1/11/08
Pattern- Basic pattern from Learn to Knit Socks
Yarn- Sirdar Country Style, 45% acrylic, 40% nylon, 15% wool, shade 0429, 1 100g ball, machine washable
Needles- size 3 DPN, 6 stitches per inch

I'm hoping my Knit Picks order arrives soon so that I can start another pair.

Wait, What?

WTF happened in the football world today? Chargers beat the Colts, Giants beat the Cowboys. I don't get it!!

Yup I'm Alive

Someone has been checking my blog a lot lately. Probably my brother Jon. As though you don't know what I've been doing!

For anyone else who might have stumbled upon my blog, I just got back from San Francisco and Vegas. I also finished my first pair of socks tonight. :)

I'm wicked tired. More later. Have a good weekend.
