I DID IT!.. First Ever Socks


I finally finished my first ever pair of socks!! They were done toe up with Knit Picks Essential Tweed in the Marina colorway. I used 2 size 3 circulars-next time will use 2's. Fit is pretty good, there are a few mistakes, mostly just stupid ones.

Am thankful for the Queen Kahuna Crazy Toes and Heels book. It gave me enough confidence to start knitting the socks (although I only did one at a time!), but I found it a little confusing to follow. Now I am hooked! Am waiting for some new Knit Picks needles to start the next pair!
